# Ingredients:
→ Base and Toppings
01 -
4 English muffins, split in half
02 -
4 large eggs
03 -
½ cup breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled
04 -
½ cup mild cheddar cheese, shredded
05 -
Dash of milk for eggs
→ Sausage Gravy
06 -
1 cup milk
07 -
¼ cup sausage drippings
08 -
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
09 -
¼ teaspoon salt
10 -
¼ teaspoon black pepper
# Instructions:
01 -
In a skillet over medium heat, cook breakfast sausage until well done and crumbly. Remove the cooked sausage but save ¼ cup of the drippings in the pan for your gravy.
02 -
Keep the pan with drippings over medium heat. Whisk flour into the drippings and cook for 1-2 minutes until it turns golden brown. Gradually pour in milk while continuously whisking to prevent lumps. Cook until the mixture thickens into a creamy gravy, about 3-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
03 -
Split English muffins in half and lightly toast them in a toaster or under the broiler until just golden around the edges.
04 -
In a separate pan, scramble eggs with a dash of milk until fluffy but still slightly moist. The eggs will cook more when broiled.
05 -
Preheat your broiler. Place toasted English muffin halves on a baking sheet. Spread each with a spoonful of sausage gravy, then top with scrambled eggs, crumbled sausage, and shredded cheese. Broil for 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts and bubbles, watching carefully to prevent burning.
