How to Make Sausage Gravy Breakfast Pizza
Ingredients:
- 2 packages crescent rolls
- 1 package cooked sausage crumbles (Jimmy Dean recommended)
- 1 envelope country gravy mix
- 6 eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 8 oz shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 oz shredded pepper jack cheese
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and grease a round pizza pan. Take the crescent dough triangles and arrange them in a circle, pressing the seams to seal and form a crust. Bake for 11-13 minutes until golden.
- In the meantime, prepare the gravy mix according to package directions. Stir in the cooked sausage crumbles and set this mixture aside.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Scramble this mixture in a buttered skillet until it’s nearly set but still a little creamy.
- Once your crust is ready, spread the sausage gravy evenly over it. After that, top with the scrambled eggs and sprinkle both types of cheese on top.
- Bake your pizza for another 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the eggs are fully set.
- Let your pizza rest for a few minutes to set, then slice it up and enjoy!
