1-First Steps: Prepping and Cooking the Base Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Unroll the 1 pre-made pizza crust and pre-bake it for 10 minutes to ensure it stays crispy under the toppings.

2-While the crust bakes, cook 1 pound breakfast sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until it’s fully done and browned. Drain the grease and return the sausage to the pan, then add 1 tablespoon butter and let it melt. Sprinkle ¼ cup all-purpose flour over the sausage, stirring constantly for about 2 minutes to cook off the raw taste and build a smooth base for the gravy.

3-Building the Gravy and Eggs: Gradually pour in 2 cups whole milk while stirring to avoid lumps, and mix in ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon black pepper, and ½ teaspoon Slap Ya Mama seasoning. Keep stirring until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency, then transfer it to a bowl and set it aside. For the eggs, use the same skillet to add another 1 tablespoon butter, pour in the 12 whisked large eggs, and cook until they’re almost set but still a bit glossy.

4-Once everything is ready, brush the edges of the pre-baked crust with 1 tablespoon melted butter for a golden finish. Spread the sausage gravy evenly over the crust, layer on the scrambled eggs, and sprinkle 1 ½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese on top. This layering technique ensures even cooking and a delightful mix of flavors in every bite.

5-Baking and Serving: Bake the assembled pizza at 400°F (200°C) for 10 minutes until the cheese melts and turns golden. Slice it up and serve hot, perhaps with a side of fresh fruit for a complete meal. Optional variations like adding diced bell peppers or onions can enhance the flavor, making this Sausage Gravy Breakfast Pizza even more versatile for your family’s tastes. Remember to remove eggs from heat while still slightly wet; they’ll finish cooking in the oven for the best texture.
