  10. Pour the sausage gravy evenly over the biscuit pieces in the baking dish.
  11. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
  12. Bake:
  13. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are cooked through and the top is golden brown.
  14. If using, sprinkle an additional 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top during the last 5 minutes of baking.
