This Cheesy Hash Brown Casserole with Biscuits and Sausage Gravy layers crispy hash browns with savory sausage gravy and fluffy biscuits, creating the ultimate comfort food perfect for brunch or dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (30 oz) bag frozen shredded hashbrowns, thawed
  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • 1 lb (450 g) beef breakfast sausage, casing removed
  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • ½ tsp dried sage
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tube refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
  • Crumbled turkey bacon, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss thawed hashbrowns with melted butter, diced onion, diced bell pepper, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly in prepared baking dish.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add sausage, breaking it up, and cook 5–6 minutes until browned. Transfer sausage to a bowl, leaving drippings in pan.
  4. Add butter to sausage drippings and melt over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook 1–2 minutes until light golden.
  5. Gradually whisk in milk, then stir in sage, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Simmer, whisking occasionally, until gravy thickens, about 3–4 minutes.
  6. Return cooked sausage to gravy and stir to combine. Remove from heat.
  7. Pour sausage gravy evenly over hashbrown layer.
  8. Arrange biscuits on top of gravy, spacing evenly.
  9. Bake 20–25 minutes until biscuits are golden and gravy bubbles.
  10. Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle crumbled turkey bacon over biscuits. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For extra cheesy flavor, stir 1 cup shredded cheddar into the hashbrown mixture before baking. Use spicy sausage for a kick or add frozen peas or diced carrots for color. Assemble through Step 7 and refrigerate up to 12 hours for make-ahead convenience. Substitute gluten-free flour and biscuits for a gluten-free version.
