Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces English muffins
- 1 pound Ground breakfast sausage
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vegetable oil
Instructions
Preheat a skillet over medium heat.
Divide the ground breakfast sausage into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a round patty slightly larger than an English muffin.
Place the sausage patties in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and add 1 tablespoon unsalted butter. Once melted, sprinkle in 3 tablespoons of flour and whisk continuously to form a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden.
Gradually pour in 2 cups of whole milk while whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Continue cooking and whisking until the gravy thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
Season the gravy with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste, then set aside, keeping it warm.
Toast the 4 English muffins to golden brown using a toaster or under a broiler.
Heat 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Crack 4 eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, or to your desired level of doneness.
Assemble the sandwiches by layering a sausage patty on the bottom half of each toasted English muffin. Top with a fried egg and a generous spoonful of cream gravy. Place the top half of the muffin on each sandwich.
Serve immediately, optionally with additional gravy on the side for dipping.
