Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 350
- 2
Fry potatoes with a little oil on med heat until outsides are brown (usually 10-15 min) ** to avoid mushy potatoes, DRY them first! With paper towels, or bake in the oven for 5-10 minutes (or both!)
- 3
Whisk eggs and 1/8C milk in a bowl. (You can use up to 12 eggs if your dish is big enough)
- 4
Over low heat, melt 2 TBS butter in med saucepan, when melted, whisk with flour until little dough-balls form. Add about 4C milk and increase to high heat. Stir frequently, and AS SOON as it boils, drop heat back down to low.
- 5
Meanwhile, microwave veggie sausage patties, just enough to be thawed (If you're using meat sausage - you need to actually cook it first) (or just try the veggie ones. I use morningstar farms for this - no one knows the difference)
- 6
Chop up (or pulse in blender) sausage and add to gravy. Let cook until gravy starts to thicken. Usually 8-10 minutes. Stir often! It will burn on the bottom! I add a good bit of salt and pepper too.
- 7
Grease casserole dish. Put potatoes on the bottom. Layer biscuits on top of potatoes.
- 8
Pour eggs (and make sure they thoroughly soak through to the bottom of the pan) Run a spatula around the edges to make sure eggs even out. Layer with cheese
- 9
Lastly, pour on sausage gravy!
- 10
I cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes on, 20 minutes off. (It can take less or longer depending on your pan. I use a deep casserole, glass, 9×13.) Just check the middle to make sure eggs aren't runny.
- 11
Cut into 8 servings-12 servings. Let it cool - the middle will be -ruin your tongue - hot!

Note about exploding Pirex! There was a wave of more cheaply made Pirex (or the like) - usually with thinner handles or lighter feel - that is notorious for exploding in your oven. (Google exploding Pirex) Varied ingredient temperatures in layers is definitely a trigger for this! Because this has some pre-cooked/hot layers, I stick my well greased dish in the oven while pre-heating to warm it up first. & I let my potatoes & gravy sit for a minute - stirring to release steam-before adding!

After going through a financial downfall, I needed some help from friends getting back on my feet. Since they had a love for biscuits and gravy, I kind of made my own take on it with hash browns instead. In a matter of moments, the only thing left I had was a clean dish and a lot of happy smiles. Felt good to pay it forward.

I think this was a Pinterest find and a good one at that. I have to hand write my "finds" or I never find them again! The nice thing about this is it keeps well, slices nicely and kept me from making breakfast for three or four days.
