Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a pan, heat oil over medium heat and add chopped onions and bell peppers. Sauté until they soften.
  • Add the breakfast sausage, cooking until it's browned.
  • Stir in the salt, pepper, flour, and heavy cream to create a rich gravy. Let it thicken slightly.
  • In another bowl, beat the eggs with unsalted butter. Cook them in a separate pan until just set, then mix them into the sausage and vegetable mixture.
  • Pour this mixture into a baking dish.

Biscuit Preparation

  • Prepare the biscuit topping according to the package instructions, mixing in softened butter and honey.

Baking

  • Spread the biscuit mixture over the sausage filling in the baking dish.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the biscuit topping is golden brown.
  • Allow to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Serve warm, pairs well with fresh fruit or a simple green salad. Drizzle some honey over the biscuit topping for extra sweetness. Don't skip the sautéing step; it enhances the flavor of the vegetables. For a spicier dish, add jalapeños or hot sauce. Experiment with different cheeses to find your favorite flavor combination.
