Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) . Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Step 2: Make the Hashbrown Base
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed hash browns, melted butter, sour cream, shredded cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Press the hash brown mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Bake for 25–30 minutes , or until the edges are golden brown and the base is set.
Step 3: Prepare the Sausage Gravy
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and crumbly. Drain excess fat.
- Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and stir to combine. Cook for 1–2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
- Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Cook until the gravy thickens, about 5–7 minutes .
- Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Step 4: Assemble the Casserole
- Spread the sausage gravy evenly over the baked hashbrown layer.
Step 5: Add the Biscuit Topping
- Cut each biscuit into quarters (or smaller pieces if desired). Scatter the biscuit pieces evenly over the gravy layer.
- Optional: Brush the biscuit tops with melted butter for extra richness.
Step 6: Bake
- Bake for an additional 20–25 minutes , or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
Step 7: Serve
- Let the casserole cool for 5–10 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra shredded cheese, chopped parsley, or a drizzle of hot sauce if desired.
