It’s a crisp Sunday morning, the sun peeking through your kitchen window, and the aroma of sizzling sausage filling the air. You’re about to embark on a culinary adventure—one that combines comfort, flavor, and a dash of magic. Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce you to the Sausage Breakfast Casserole with Bisquick.
Bisquick the unsung hero of countless breakfasts. This versatile mix of flour, baking powder, and a touch of fairy dust has been a staple in American kitchens for decades. It’s the Swiss Army knife of baking, transforming into pancakes, biscuits, and, yes, our beloved breakfast casserole.
How to Make Sausage Breakfast Casserole with Bisquick
Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with a touch of butter or cooking spray.
Cook the Sausage
In a skillet over medium heat, crumble and cook the breakfast sausage until it’s browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
Prepare the Bisquick Layer
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the Bisquick mix, eggs, and milk until smooth. This forms the base layer of our casserole.
Pour this mixture into the greased baking dish.
Layer It Up
Sprinkle the cooked sausage evenly over the Bisquick layer.
Scatter the chopped onion and diced red bell pepper on top.
Generously sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over everything. Imagine you’re creating a breakfast mosaic.
Season and Bake
Season the entire casserole with salt and pepper. Remember, seasoning is like a secret handshake between you and your taste buds.
Pop the baking dish into the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the casserole is puffed up and golden brown. The cheese should be gloriously melted.
The Grand Reveal
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Admire its beauty—it’s like a sunrise in edible form.
Slice it into squares or wedges and serve it up with a side of fresh fruit or a dollop of sour cream.
Enjoy the Magic
Take a forkful and savor the layers—the fluffy Bisquick, the savory sausage, the sweet bell peppers, and the cheesy goodness. Close your eyes; let the flavors dance on your palate.
Share it with loved ones, and watch their faces light up. You’ve just created breakfast magic
