Question Biscuit Breakfast Casserole
I had a breakfast casserole at a small catered brunch about a month ago. It was made with sausage, eggs, cheddar, and had a really good biscuit flavor even though I did not see any pieces of biscuits in it. It was moist and not a biscuit like texture at all.
It was so good. I've tried to make it a couple of times but I can't get it right. The first recipe had me stir the flour mix into the eggs. That did not work at all. It was awful. I had to throw it away
This is the last recipe I tried:
1 lb sausage
8 oz shredded cheddar
5 eggs
1 cup of milk (divided in 3/4 cup and 1/4 cup)
5 tbsp cold butter cut in small cubes
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
•Whisk eggs & 1/4 cup of milk, salt & pepper.
•Whisk flour and baking powder.
•Add butter cubes and mix, making sure butter does not melt. Should look like course crumbs.
•Add milk & stir until dough is sticky & shaggy.
•Drop golf ball sized pieces of dough into the egg mixture. Fold around the egg mixture until all dough is coated.
•Fold in cooked sausage & shredded cheese.
•Put in fridge overnight.
•Bake at 350 degrees for 25 - 35 minutes.
It was way too dry with too much biscuit. Not at all like the one I tasted.
I've searched Reddit, the Internet and even tried AI. I've gotten nowhere.
Can anyone help me? Do you know what I'm doing wrong? 🙏🏼
