Preheat and Prepare Pan:
Set your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit Grease a round pizza pan well so the crust will be easy to serve later
Build Crust:
Unroll crescent dough triangles and arrange them in a circle slightly overlapping Press the seams with your fingers forming a solid base that goes up the sides Pinch any gaps to seal Bake for about 11 to 13 minutes until the crust is puffed and a light golden color Check at 10 minutes to avoid overly brown edges
Make Sausage Gravy:
While crust bakes prepare the gravy mix following directions on the package Whisk until thick and lump free Remove from heat Stir in the cooked sausage crumbles giving the gravy a minute to absorb their flavor Keep warm on the stove
Scramble Eggs:
In a mixing bowl whisk eggs with milk salt and pepper Beat until no streaks remain Heat butter in a nonstick skillet over medium low Pour in the eggs Gently stir with a spatula letting curds form Lift and fold repeatedly for soft creamy eggs Remove from heat while still a bit wet since they will finish in the oven
Layer Toppings:
Once crust is slightly cooled spread sausage gravy evenly over the base Use the back of a spoon to reach the edges Scatter scrambled eggs over the gravy Next sprinkle a mix of cheddar and pepper Jack cheese over everything so the color distributes
Final Bake:
Slide the pizza pan back in the oven Bake for five to ten minutes Watch closely Cheese should bubble and brown lightly and eggs finish setting Pull it out as soon as the top looks melty and irresistible
Rest and Slice:
Let the pizza rest three to five minutes This helps toppings settle and slicing is easier Cut into generous wedges and serve hot
You Must Know
High in protein and satisfying enough for lunch or dinner
Generous topping ratio you get substantial layers with every bite
Quick assembly with ready made components means less morning stress
My favorite ingredient is the combination of two cheeses The creamy cheddar alongside a sharper pepper Jack delivers a gooey pull every time I slice My kids love handing me the cheese to sprinkle and always try to sneak extra on their half
Storage Tips
If you have any leftovers allow the pizza to cool to room temperature before wrapping tightly in foil or placing in an airtight container It keeps well in the refrigerator for up to two days To reheat place slices on a baking sheet in the oven at 350 degrees until warmed through This keeps the crust crisp Microwaving works in a pinch but the crust may soften
Ingredient Substitutions
You can swap bacon or diced ham for the sausage Try turkey sausage for a lighter version If you prefer homemade gravy use equal parts butter and flour to make a quick roux and whisk in milk plus salt and pepper Top with any melty cheese you love such as Monterey Jack or mozzarella
Serving Suggestions
Serve with a light green salad for a balanced brunch or a platter of fresh fruit If you want to make it extra festive add a sprinkle of chopped chives or green onions on top A dash of hot sauce or a side of salsa also pairs beautifully
