Description
This Sausage Gravy Breakfast Pizza is the kind of quick breakfast that feels extra special without being complicated. It has a golden pizza crust layered with creamy sausage gravy, gooey cheese, and baked eggs for one of my favorite breakfast ideas, brunch ideas, and easy recipe options when I want comforting food ideas everyone gets excited about.
Ingredients
1 pound pizza dough
8 ounces breakfast sausage
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups whole milk
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and lightly grease a pizza pan or baking sheet. Stretch the pizza dough into a 12-inch round.
2. Pre-bake the crust for 5 minutes, then remove it from the oven.
3. Cook the breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned, breaking it into crumbles. Reserve a small handful for topping.
4. Add the butter to the skillet, then stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute.
5. Slowly pour in the milk while stirring. Add the black pepper, garlic powder, and salt, then simmer until the gravy thickens.
6. Spread the sausage gravy over the pre-baked crust.
7. Top with the mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, and reserved sausage.
8. Make 4 small wells in the toppings and crack the eggs into them.
9. Bake for 12 to 16 minutes, until the crust is golden, the cheese is melted, and the egg whites are set.
10. Sprinkle with fresh parsley, slice, and serve warm.
Notes
Do not make the gravy too thin, or the center of the pizza can turn soft instead of crisp and sliceable.
