Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
Sausage Gravy
- 1 lb ground breakfast sausage
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Eggs & Toppings
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Biscuit Crust: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Flatten the refrigerated biscuit dough and arrange it onto a greased 12-inch pizza pan, pressing the edges together to form a uniform crust. Bake for 10 minutes until the crust is lightly golden. Remove from the oven and set aside.
- Cook the Sausage: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the ground breakfast sausage until fully browned, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks. Once browned, remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.
- Make the Gravy: Add the all-purpose flour to the sausage drippings in the skillet and stir continuously for about 2 minutes to form a roux. Gradually whisk in the whole milk, continuing to stir until the gravy thickens and becomes smooth. Season the gravy with black pepper and salt to taste. Return the cooked sausage crumbles to the gravy and mix well, then remove the skillet from heat.
- Scramble the Eggs: In a separate skillet, cook the eggs over medium heat, stirring frequently until they are lightly scrambled and just set. Remove from heat.
- Assemble the Pizza: Spread the warm sausage gravy evenly over the pre-baked biscuit crust. Layer the scrambled eggs over the gravy and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top.
- Bake: Return the assembled pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Optionally garnish with freshly chopped chives. Slice the breakfast pizza into wedges and serve warm for a satisfying meal.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, use spicy breakfast sausage instead of mild.
- Fresh chives add a nice color and subtle onion flavor but are optional.
- Make sure not to overcook the scrambled eggs as they will cook a bit more in the oven.
- Leftover breakfast pizza can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or microwave.
