WHAT IS A ‘BUBBLE UP’?
Recipe bloggers have deemed a ‘Bubble Up’ as a recipe in which biscuit pieces, most often canned biscuits, are used as the base with protein, maybe vegetables, and a sauce poured on top. As the casserole cooks, the biscuits ‘bubble up’ and turn golden brown. Bubble Up recipes can be sweet or savory. They are popular because they’re quick and easy. You can have a tasty bread based recipe without making a dough.
Sausage Gravy Biscuit Bubble Up Casserole
This savory breakfast casserole has your favorite breakfast foods in one convenient casserole. It has biscuits, sausage, gravy, and eggs in it.
My family loves breakfast for dinner. With this recipe being so easy to make, it was a no-brainer for our busy weeknights.
CAN THIS CASSEROLE BE MADE IN A SLOW COOKER?
- Assemble the casserole as indicated below, however, layer the ingredients in a slow cooker.
- Because the steam releases as the casserole cooks, condensation will collect on the lid. Cover the top with a double layer paper towels before covering with the lid to prevent the casserole from becoming soggy.
- Cook on high power. It takes about 2 hours on high. However, you’ll want to check it after about an hour and a half. Not all slow cookers cook the same. Therefore, you want to keep an eye on it the first time you bake it. Itโs done when the biscuits are golden brown around the edges and it’s ‘set’ (not jiggly) in the center.
Sausage Gravy Biscuit Bubble Up Casserole
- Depending on the variety of sausage and cheese you use will affect how much salt and pepper you need. I find that some brands of sausage and cheddar cheese are saltier than others. I used a pinch of salt and about 1/8 teaspoon of pepper.
- As well, I recommend regular pork sausage not maple or sage sausage for this recipe.
- You can also use turkey sausage.
- I used cheddar, but you can use your favorite cheese or whatever you have on hand.
- Finally, only 2 cups of the gravy go into the casserole. Reserve the remaining to serve with the casserole. You can microwave it to reheat.
Please keep in mind that nutritional information is a rough estimate and can vary based on products used.

Can you bake real biscuits and use those? Not a fan of the pop biscuits from a can.
Thanks
Nanette
I haven’t tried it with homemade biscuits so I don’t have a recommendation of it.
Can this be made the night before and then baked in the morning?
You can make it up through step 5 where you pour the eggs over the biscuits. Refrigerate.
Then in the morning top with gravy and bake.
I made this casserole this morning. I can’t wait to make it again. It is so good!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!!!!
Is it a total of 3 2/3 cup milk? Ingredients call for 3 cups, all added to the sausage mixture, then 2/3 with the eggs.
2/3 cup milk goes in casserole
3 cups milk goes in gravy
Recipe says 8 eggs but a comment here says 6 eggs. Can you please clarify?
8 eggs
Can you freeze the leftovers?
yes
Paula, this looks incredible!! You had me at biscuits and gravy, but making it into an egg dish! WOWZA! Just to clarify, you mention 6 large eggs in your comment above, but the recipe shows 8 large eggs?
Thanks for sharing on Weekend Potluck!
