Ingredients

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder: Adds a warm depth of flavor.
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper: Provides a mild heat and enhances overall flavor.
1/2 teaspoon fine salt: Essential for balancing taste.
180 grams shredded cheddar cheese: Brings creamy richness and a delightful melting feature.
480 millilitres whole milk: Creates a smooth base for the sausage gravy.
1 packet (78 grams) McCormick Sausage Flavour Gravy Mix: A convenient way to achieve that classic sausage gravy flavor.
360 grams frozen shredded hash browns: Offers a crispy texture that serves as the foundation of the bake.
450 grams premium pork sausage: The star protein that adds flavor and heartiness.
1 can (454 grams) buttermilk biscuits: Creates a light and flaky topping.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 190°C and lightly grease a 33×23 cm baking pan to ensure even baking.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the pork sausage, crumbling it as it browns. Once fully cooked, drain any excess fat.
Evenly spread the frozen hash browns in the prepared baking dish. Top with the cooked, crumbled sausage.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sausage gravy mix with the milk until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over the sausage and hash browns.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the casserole to create a uniform cheesy layer.
Cut each buttermilk biscuit into four pieces and distribute the biscuit pieces evenly on top of the casserole.
Place the assembled casserole in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the biscuit tops become golden brown and the center is set.
Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving hot.
