📝 Ingredients

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. 2
    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it up with a spoon, until fully browned and no pink remains. Do not drain all the fat; leave about 2 tablespoons of drippings in the pan.
  3. 3
    Reduce heat to medium. Sprinkle the flour over the cooked sausage and drippings, stirring constantly for 1 minute.
  4. 4
    Gradually whisk in 2 cups of whole milk, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Continue whisking until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency, about 5-7 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and salt to taste. Set aside.
  5. 5
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the 6 large eggs, 1/4 cup milk or cream, and a pinch of salt and pepper. In a separate non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt a small pat of butter or a drizzle of oil. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until just set and fluffy. Do not overcook.
  6. 6
    Arrange the split English muffins cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon a generous amount of the warm sawmill gravy over each English muffin half, spreading to the edges.
  7. 7
    Divide the scrambled eggs evenly among the muffins, spooning them over the gravy. Then, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the eggs on each English muffin.
  8. 8
    Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the English muffin edges are lightly toasted and golden.
  9. 9
    Carefully remove from the oven. If desired, garnish with chopped fresh chives or green onions. Serve immediately and enjoy!

💡 Notes

For meal prep, assemble unbaked pizzas up to the cheese step, wrap, and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Add cheese before baking. To freeze, wrap baked and cooled pizzas individually in plastic and foil for up to 1 month. Reheat in oven or toaster oven for best results.
