- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt for the crust
- 8 tbsp unsalted butter cold and cubed
- ¾ cup milk for the dough
- 8 oz ground breakfast sausage
- 3 tbsp all purpose flour for the gravy

Instructions
Cooking
- Heat. Heat the oven to 425 degrees F and grease a baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Dough. Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt, cut in the cold butter until crumbly, then stir in the milk until a soft dough forms. Press into a large round on the pan.
- Pre bake. Bake the crust 8 to 10 minutes until lightly golden.
- Gravy. Brown the sausage in a skillet over medium heat until it reaches 160 degrees F. Sprinkle in the flour, cook 1 minute, then whisk in the milk gradually and simmer 3 to 4 minutes until thick. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Top. Spread the gravy over the crust, scatter the mozzarella and cheddar, and add eggs if using.
- Finish. Bake 11 to 12 minutes until the cheese melts and the eggs are set, then garnish with parsley.
Notes
Substitutions: Use pepper jack in place of cheddar for a little heat, and swap in spinach or bell peppers for extra vegetables.
Tips: Keep the butter very cold for a flakier crust.
Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days and reheat in a hot oven.
Nutrition does not include the optional eggs and parsley.
