Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough 🍞
- 1/2 lb breakfast sausage
- 2 tbsp butter 🧈
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1 1/2 cups milk 🥛
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp salt 🧂
- 4 eggs, scrambled 🍳
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 🧀
Swaps and Notes
- Biscuit Dough: You can use homemade if you prefer, but store-bought keeps this recipe quick and easy.
- Cheese Options: Try pepper jack for a little kick or mozzarella for a creamier texture.
- Add Veggies: Sautéed mushrooms, spinach, or bell peppers can be added for more nutrition and color.
- Meat-Free Option: Use plant-based sausage and dairy-free milk/butter for a vegetarian version.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Pre-Bake the Crust
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Press biscuit dough into a circle or rectangle on a parchment-lined baking sheet, forming a crust with slightly raised edges.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden.
2. Cook the Sausage
- In a skillet, cook breakfast sausage until browned. Remove and set aside, leaving the drippings.
3. Make the Gravy
- Add butter to the skillet with sausage drippings and melt over medium heat.
- Whisk in flour to create a roux. Slowly add milk while whisking constantly.
- Stir until thickened, about 3–5 minutes. Add salt, pepper, and the cooked sausage back into the gravy. Remove from heat.
4. Scramble the Eggs
- Lightly scramble the eggs until just set. They’ll finish cooking in the oven.
5. Assemble the Pizza
- Spread sausage gravy evenly over the biscuit crust.
- Top with scrambled eggs and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese all over.
6. Final Bake
- Return pizza to the oven and bake for another 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
7. Serve
- Slice and serve hot. Garnish with chopped chives or hot sauce if desired!
Tips for Success
- Don’t overcook the eggs—slightly underdone is ideal before baking.
- Use a pizza stone or pre-heated baking sheet for a crisper bottom crust.
- Double the recipe for larger crowds or prep two and freeze one before baking.
