Notes
Grease the baking pan: Don't forget to grease the pan, otherwise the casserole will stick.
Thickening the gravy: Keep an eye on the gravy as it thickens. It can thicken quickly and you don't want it to get lumpy or scorched.
Let it cool: Give the biscuits and gravy breakfast casserole 10 or 15 minutes to cool before slicing and serving. It will still be hot but some of the moisture content will have settled, making slicing easier.
