The presents are always the star of the show, but Christmas morning breakfast comes in at a close second. The problem is that no one wants to be running around the kitchen while everyone else is enjoying the holiday.

A breakfast casserole will answer all your Christmas wishes, making the day a truly merry and bright one. You can do all the prep work the night before and simply pop it into the oven when you wake up.

TikToker Linda (@cooking_comedy_chaos) is sharing a recipe for a comforting Christmas morning casserole to serve for breakfast.

This recipe makes a double batch, but you can cut all the ingredients in half if you’re not feeding a large crowd.

Grab a large baking pan and spray it with oil, making sure to cover all the corners and sides of the pan. Next, pop open two cans of biscuits, break them up into small pieces, and arrange them in the pan.

In a mixing bowl, crack in a dozen eggs. Then, add a cup of milk, a teaspoon or two of salt, some black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper.

You can omit the pepper if you don’t want your casserole to be spicy. Use a whisk to combine the ingredients together thoroughly.

Next, take the egg mixture and pour it over the biscuits. Sprinkle two types of cheese over the top. Linda uses shredded pepperjack and muenster cheese. Afterward, spread some homemade sausage gravy all over the biscuits.

To make the sausage gravy, start by setting a skillet to medium heat on your stove. Add a bit of bacon grease, diced onions, and a pinch of salt.

Once the onions have started to brown, add a pound of sausage. Break up the sausage and scoop in about a half cup of bacon grease. Then, slowly sift in a half cup of flour.

It should take two to three minutes for the flour to cook. When the flour is cooked, pour in four to five cups of milk.

After everything is mixed in, season with a generous amount of black pepper, crushed red pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.

If you don’t want to go to the trouble of making your own gravy, skip this step and substitute it with one pound of sausage and a packet of gravy mix.

Once your sausage gravy reaches a consistency that meets your standards, smooth it all over the biscuits.

Finally, sprinkle bacon bits and shredded cheese on top. Place it in the oven for 35 to 40 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

If you’re heating it up after taking it out of the refrigerator, leave it in the oven for 45 minutes to an hour.

This casserole is a Christmas miracle!
