Ingredients
  

1 pound sweet Italian sausage

1 medium onion, diced

2 cups fresh apples, peeled and diced (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work well)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

8 ounces refrigerated biscuit dough (cut into quarters)

4 large eggs

2 cups milk

1/4 cup maple syrup

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with non-stick spray.

    Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sweet Italian sausage until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon (about 5-7 minutes). Add the diced onion and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the onions are translucent.

      Add Apples and Spices: Stir in the diced apples, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook for another 3 minutes, allowing the apples to soften slightly. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.

        Prepare Biscuit Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and maple syrup until well combined.

          Combine Ingredients: Layer the cooked sausage, apple, and onion mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish. Scatter the quartered biscuit dough pieces over the top. Pour the egg mixture over everything, making sure to soak the biscuit pieces. Finally, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the top.

            Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the egg is set and the biscuits are fluffy and golden brown.

              Cool and Serve: Allow the casserole to cool for about 5 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
