Best Breakfast Enchiladas with Sausage Gravy Made


  • Total Time: 60 minutes
  • Yield: 10 enchiladas 1x

Description

A restaurant-quality weekend brunch favorite combining sausage, eggs, cheese, and tortillas smothered in rich homemade sausage gravy for the ultimate comfort meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 large flour tortillas
  • 1 lb mild breakfast sausage
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1 minced jalapeño (optional)
  • 10 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 cups cooked tater tots or hash browns
  • 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 3/4 cups milk
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 lb additional sausage (for gravy)

Instructions

  1. Cook sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat, adding onion and jalapeño halfway through. Reserve 1 cup of the mixture for gravy.
  2. Add flour to remaining sausage and cook 1 minute. Whisk in milk gradually and simmer 5–7 minutes until thickened. Set aside.
  3. Scramble eggs in butter until slightly underdone. Stir in tater tots, half the cheese, and reserved sausage.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread a thin layer of gravy in a greased 9×13 baking dish. Fill tortillas with egg mixture, roll, and place seam-side down.
  5. Pour remaining gravy over enchiladas and top with remaining cheese. Bake 30–40 minutes until bubbly and golden.
  6. Rest 5–10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Warm tortillas before rolling to prevent cracking and achieve cleaner, tighter rolls.
