Preparation Phase & Tools to Use
To make this Cheddar Bay Biscuit Egg Breakfast Casserole seamless, here are the essential tools and why they matter:
- Mixing Bowls – You’ll need a few to mix the biscuit dough and whisk the eggs.

How To Make the Cheddar Bay Biscuit Egg Breakfast Casserole
Step 1: Prep the Oven and Pan
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray or butter.
Step 2: Mix the Biscuit Dough
Prepare the Cheddar Bay biscuit mix according to the package directions. Fold in shredded cheddar cheese for extra richness.
Step 3: Spread the Biscuit Base
Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough evenly into the greased baking dish. Don’t worry about spreading them flat—they’ll rise beautifully as they bake.
Step 4: Whisk the Egg Mixture
In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper until fully combined.
Step 5: Assemble the Casserole
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the biscuit dough. Sprinkle extra shredded cheese on top for added gooeyness.
Step 6: Bake to Perfection
Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes or until the center is set and the top is golden. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
How to Serve and Store This Casserole
Serve warm slices topped with fresh parsley or a drizzle of hot sauce for extra kick. Pair it with a simple fruit salad or crispy bacon for a balanced breakfast.
To store, let the casserole cool completely. Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave or oven. This dish also freezes well for up to 2 months—just thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat.
