Instructions
-
Preheat Oven
-
425°F (220°C). Grease two baking sheets.
-
Roll out pizza dough to fit sheets; brush with olive oil.

-
Par-Bake Crust
-
Bake 7–8 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven.
-
-
Scramble Eggs
-
Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
-
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook eggs until just set but slightly wet.
-
-
Warm Gravy
-
Heat canned sausage gravy over low, stirring occasionally. Add milk if too thick.
-
-
Assemble Pizzas
-
Spread warm gravy over crusts.
-
Layer scrambled eggs evenly.
-
Top with shredded Colby Jack cheese (edge to edge).
-
-

-
Garnish & Serve

Notes
-
Avoid watery eggs: Remove from heat when slightly underdone; residual heat will finish cooking.
-
Make ahead: Par-bake crust and scramble eggs the night before; assemble and bake in the morning.
-
Reheat: Oven/toaster oven at 350°F for ~10 minutes; microwave works but softens crust.
-
Smaller batch: Halve ingredients for 1 pizza (~12 slices).
