Ingredients
- 4 English muffins (split and lightly toasted)
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup cooked breakfast sausage (crumbled)
- 1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
- 1 cup sawmill gravy (sausage-based)
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare the Sausage and Gravy:
- Cook breakfast sausage in a skillet until browned.
- Remove sausage, leaving ¼ cup drippings in the pan.
- Add flour to drippings to form a roux, cooking until golden brown.
- Gradually whisk in milk, stirring until the gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
- Scramble the Eggs:
- In a pan, scramble the eggs over medium-low heat until just set. Add a splash of milk for fluffier eggs.
- Toast the Muffins:
- Lightly toast the English muffin halves to prevent sogginess.
- Assemble the Pizzas:
- Spread a layer of sawmill gravy on each toasted muffin half.
- Top with scrambled eggs, crumbled sausage, and cheddar cheese.
- Broil:
- Preheat the broiler. Place the assembled muffins on a baking sheet and broil until the cheese melts and bubbles. Watch closely to prevent burning.
Notes
- Variations: Substitute sausage with sautéed vegetables for a vegetarian option, or use alternative cheeses for different flavor profiles.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes.
