6 large eggs

30 milliliters whole milk, plus extra for scrambling eggs
→ Protein
04 -
225 grams breakfast sausage, pork or turkey

05 -
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, optional if needed for roux
06 -
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

0.5 teaspoon salt, to taste

0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper, to taste

8 slices mild cheddar cheese or preferred cheese
# Instructions:
01 -
In a skillet over medium heat, cook breakfast sausage until thoroughly browned and crumbly. Transfer sausage to a plate and set aside. Reserve approximately 60 milliliters of sausage drippings.
02 -
Add flour to reserved drippings in skillet. Cook on medium, stirring constantly, until mixture turns golden, about 5–10 minutes. Gradually whisk in 30 milliliters milk; simmer until thickened. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
03 -
While gravy simmers, place English muffin halves onto a baking sheet and toast lightly, either in a toaster or under a broiler.
04 -
Beat eggs with a small splash of milk. In a non-stick skillet, scramble over medium-low heat until just set but still tender.
05 -
Preheat broiler to high. Arrange toasted muffin halves on a baking sheet. Top each half with a generous spoonful of gravy, followed by scrambled eggs, a slice of cheddar cheese, and cooked sausage crumbles.
06 -
Broil assembled muffins until cheese melts and bubbles, watching closely to prevent burning. Serve immediately while hot.
# Notes:
01 -
If sausage provides insufficient drippings for the gravy, supplement with unsalted butter to reach desired consistency.
