Ingredients
- 1 can of refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)

- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9×9-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray or lightly coat with butter.
- Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough and tear each biscuit into 6-8 pieces. Arrange the torn biscuits evenly across the bottom of your prepared baking dish.
- Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk thoroughly until well combined.
- Pour the whisked eggs evenly over the biscuit pieces.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.

Notes
- Tear, don’t cut: Tearing the biscuit dough creates better texture.
- Season your eggs: Whisk a pinch of salt and pepper into the eggs for enhanced flavor.
- Cheese placement matters: Reserve about ¼ cup of the cheddar to sprinkle halfway through baking.
- Watch for doneness: Check the casserole at 20 minutes to ensure it doesn’t overcook.
- Preheat thoroughly: Ensure the oven reaches 350°F for best results.
