1 (12 inch) pre-baked pizza crust
06 -
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed (Optional)
07 -
6 eggs
08 -
¼ cup milk
09 -
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, or as desired
10 -
Cooking spray
# Instructions:
01 -
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir sausage until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Stir in flour until dissolved, then add 2 cups milk. Stir occasionally until gravy reaches desired consistency, about 10 minutes. Season with black pepper.
02 -
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) or follow the temperature recommendations on your pizza crust package.
03 -
Place pizza crust on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Spread half of the sausage gravy over the olive oil (reserve remaining gravy for another use).
04 -
Spray a large skillet with cooking spray and warm over medium-high heat. Whisk eggs and ¼ cup milk together in a bowl. Pour into the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until eggs are fully set, about 5 minutes.
05 -
Top the gravy-covered pizza crust with the scrambled eggs, then sprinkle with shredded Cheddar cheese.
06 -
Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted and bubbling, 10 to 15 minutes.
07 -
Remove from oven, slice, and serve immediately while hot.
# Notes:
01 -
This recipe makes enough sausage gravy for two pizzas - you can freeze the extra for later use.
02 -
Follow the baking temperature and time recommendations on your specific pizza crust package for best results.
