Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 1 package Crescent Roll Dough
Sausage Gravy
- 2 tablespoons All-Purpose Flour
- 1 pound Breakfast Sausage
- 1 cup Whole Milk
- 1 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Eggs and Cheese
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a greased baking sheet to prevent sticking during baking.
- Prepare Crust: Unroll the crescent roll dough, lay it flat on the baking sheet, and pinch all the seams together to form a solid crust. Bake it for 7-9 minutes until it turns a beautiful golden color.
- Cook Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage for 5-7 minutes until it is fully browned and cooked through.
- Make Sausage Gravy: Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the cooked sausage and stir continuously for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste. Gradually whisk in whole milk, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens to a creamy gravy consistency. Stir in freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Scramble Eggs: In a separate skillet over medium-low heat, scramble the eggs gently for 3-4 minutes until they are just set and fluffy, avoiding overcooking.
- Assemble Pizza: Spread the savory sausage gravy evenly over the baked crescent roll crust. Next, layer the scrambled eggs on top of the gravy, and then sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly over the eggs.
- Bake Pizza: Place the assembled breakfast pizza back into the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the cheeses melt fully and become bubbly.
- Serve: Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to rest for a minute to set. Slice into 8 servings and serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute turkey or plant-based sausage for a lighter or vegetarian option.
- Light or plant-based milk can be used instead of whole milk for a dairy-free or lighter alternative.
- Feel free to swap cheddar cheese with pepper jack if you prefer a spicy kick.
- For an extra crispy crust, bake the crescent roll dough a couple of minutes longer before adding toppings.
- Adding fresh herbs like chives or parsley on top after baking can add a fresh flavor and color.
- Make sure to pinch seams tightly to avoid the dough separating during baking.
