Ingredients
English Muffin Pizza:
- 4 pieces English Muffins split
- 1 lb Breakfast Sausage
- 8 pieces Eggs
- 8 oz Mild Cheddar Cheese thinly sliced
Sawmill Gravy:
- 2 cups Milk
- 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper or to taste
Instructions
Cooking Sausage:
- In a large cast iron skillet, brown the breakfast sausage over medium heat until fully cooked, then remove it from the skillet, setting it aside while retaining 1/4 cup of drippings.
Making Gravy:
- In the same skillet, incorporate the flour into the reserved drippings, stirring constantly for about 2-3 minutes until a golden roux forms. Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps, and let it simmer until thickened to your liking. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
Preparing Eggs and Muffins:
- While the gravy cooks, lightly toast the English muffin halves. In another non-stick skillet, scramble the eggs, adding a splash of milk for fluffiness if desired.
Assembling Pizzas:
- Set your oven to broil high. On a baking sheet, arrange the toasted muffin halves. Generously spread the gravy on each, followed by scrambled eggs, a slice of cheese, and the cooked sausage.
Broiling:
- Broil the muffins for 1-3 minutes, keeping a close watch until the cheese is bubbly and the muffin edges are lightly browned.
