Ingredients

For the Biscuit Base
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits) or 2 cups homemade biscuit dough
- 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing pan)
For the Sausage Gravy
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
For the Toppings

- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

Step-by-Step Cooking Guide
Step 1 – Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish or pizza pan.
Step 2 – Create the Biscuit Crust
Flatten each biscuit and press them together in the pan to form a single crust. Seal the edges well so there are no gaps.
Bake for 8–10 minutes until lightly golden, then remove from the oven.
Step 3 – Cook the Sausage
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned. Break it into small crumbles as it cooks.
Step 4 – Make the Gravy
Sprinkle flour over the cooked sausage and stir well. Cook for 1–2 minutes, then slowly add milk while stirring continuously.
Let the mixture simmer until it thickens into a creamy gravy. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Step 5 – Assemble the Pizza
Spread the sausage gravy evenly over the biscuit crust. Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese on top.
If using eggs, crack them gently over the pizza.
Step 6 – Bake the Pizza
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and eggs are cooked to your preference.
Step 7 – Garnish and Serve
Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, slice, and serve warm.
