Country Sausage Gravy Breakfast Pizza
Perfect for a holiday morning, or weekend brunch we made this Country Sausage Gravy Breakfast Pizza when we had out of town family staying over and it was a big hit. Everyone said this is pretty spectacular!
Ingredients
- 2 rolls refrigerated crescent rolls
- 1 lb breakfast sausage (I used Tennessee Pride)
- 6 eggs, scrambled
- 2 cups prepared hash browns (I used frozen hash browns)
- 8 oz shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 tablespoons rendered grease from sausage
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 2-2 1/2 cups milk
- salt and pepper to taste
- crumbled cooked sausage
Country Gravy:
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Roll out crescent dough on a greased, sheet pan.
- Press edges together to seal seams and pinch some up the sides of pan to form one large crust. Bake for 11-13 minutes or until golden brown.
- While that's in the oven crumble sausage in a large skillet and cook over medium high heat.
- Remove sausage, leaving three tablespoons of the oil, spoon out any extra or add bacon grease, butter, or oil if not enough.
- Whisk in flour and continue whisking for two to three minutes, or until smooth and a nice and golden brown. Reduce heat and slowly begin adding milk while stirring, whisking constantly, as it thickens add more milk (about 2 cups) until desired thickness. Add about half the sausage into the gravy. Taste and season with salt and extra pepper. Remove from heat, or it will just keep getting thicker, you can add a little more milk if it begins to get too thick.
- Spread gravy over the baked crescent rolls, top with the rest of the sausage, scrambled eggs, cooked hash browns and top with cheese, put back in the oven 3-5 minutes to melt the cheese.
