Breakfast for dinner is served in a flash with this super easy and delicious breakfast sausage, bacon and egg biscuit casserole made in a cast iron pan!
We are big breakfast for dinner people in this house.
And I love coming up with new ideas to make it interesting.
One of my favorite easy dinners is making a breakfast casserole.
Eggs, meat, cheese and a bread of choice is all it takes to transform a simple dish into something super flavorful!
{recipe for the sausage, bacon & egg biscuit casserole below}
The easiest way to make this is in a cast iron skillet.
Everyone should have at least one cast iron pan in their kitchen. They last FOREVER as long as you take care of them, and are so versatile.
First, you do a little sautéing and then bake everything in the oven for about 25 minutes and breakfast, brunch or dinner is served!
Breakfast casserole is also a fantastic way to use up a lot of eggs once.
Our girls at the farm where we keep our goats are laying like crazy right now.
So besides using them for baking, I’ve been making quiche a lot to keep in the freezer and meals like this.
Here’s how to make it…

Description
Breakfast for dinner is served in a flash with this super easy and delicious breakfast sausage, bacon and egg biscuit casserole made in a cast iron pan!
Ingredients
- 5 pieces of thick cut bacon (chopped)
- 1/2 lb. ground breakfast sausage
- 1 small yellow onion (finely chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 5 eggs
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- 1 package refrigerated jumbo buttermilk biscuits (8 biscuits-16 oz)
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F
- Chop up onion and garlic
- Chop up bacon and add to 10-12” cast iron skillet on medium heat. Cook until crispy and set aside on paper towels.
- Now add the breakfast sausage to brown. once almost fully cooked add in the onions and garlic, and the red pepper flakes
- Turn off the heat, and remove the sausage and onion mixture into a bowl to cool down
- In another bowl, mix your eggs and milk. Season with salt and pepper.
- Stir in 1/2 of your cheese into the eggs, and gradually start adding your warm sausage and onion mixture into the eggs, stirring often until the entire mixture is blended. (this is so the sausage wont curdle the eggs out of the pan.)
- Next open your biscuit package and fill the bottom of the cast iron pan with the 8 biscuits (7 around and 1 in the middle)
- Pour the egg and sausage mixture over the biscuits
- Top with the remaining cheddar cheese and the crumbled bacon
- Put cast iron pan onto baking sheet and place in 425 oven for 25 minutes until puffed and golden brown. Serve warm.
Notes
*Feel free to change up meats and cheese for different flavors
**We love this with sausage gravy or for a southwestern style have it with salsa and sour cream
YUM! Enjoy!
