The best part about this recipe is that the sausage gravy can be made ahead of time (and even frozen, if you’d like), making this a very quick breakfast to throw together when company shows up.

If you don’t have access to crescent rolls, or would prefer not to use them, this recipe works really well with a base of your favorite biscuit dough rolled out like pizza dough. Be sure to use a silpat or other pastry mat so that the dough will be easy to transfer to a pizza pan.

Sausage Gravy Breakfast Pizza Recipe

You’ll Need:
2 packages crescent rolls
1 lb sausage, cooked & crumbled
1 envelope country gravy mix
6 eggs
S&P
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup shredded cheese (Cheddar, Monterey Jack, Fiesta blend, etc)

Heat oven to 375.

Separate crescent dough into triangles and place on a piece of parchment paper with points toward the center.

Press the edges together to seal the seams, then fold around the circle to form a “crust”.

Bake for 11-13 minutes or until golden brown.

While the dough is baking, prepare gravy according to package directions in a medium saucepan. We used our homemade make ahead country gravy mix recipe available here.

Stir cooked sausage crumbles into thickened gravy; set aside.

In a small bowl, beat eggs with a fork, season with salt and pepper. Heat a pat of butter in a skillet, Add seasoned eggs and cook until the eggs are softly set.

Spread sausage gravy mixture over the hot crust, Top with eggs and cheese and a sprinkle of scallions if desired. Bake 5 more minutes until eggs are set and cheese is completely melted.

Cut into wedges and serve immediately.

If you’re cooking for just 2 people, use only 1 package of crescent rolls and freeze the extra sausage gravy for another day. Use 4 eggs instead of 6 and a half as much cheese.
