Method
 

  1. Split your English muffins and place them on a baking sheet. Lightly toast in the oven at 400 degrees for about 5 minutes.
  2. In a medium skillet, brown your breakfast sausage over medium high heat. Break it into small crumbles as it cooks. Ensure it is cooked through and golden brown.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk your eggs with a splash of milk and a pinch of salt. Scramble them in a lightly buttered pan until they are just set but still soft.
  4. Melt butter in the sausage skillet, whisk in flour to meat a roux, and gradually add milk. Stir until thick and luscious. Season generously with black pepper.
  5. Spoon a generous layer of gravy or a light spread of butter over each toasted muffin half. Layer the scrambled eggs on top, followed by the sausage crumbles.
  6. Top each mini breakfast pizza with a handful of shredded cheddar. Don't be shy with the cheese.
  7. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 5 to 8 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and slightly browned at the edges.
  8. Sprinkle with fresh green onions immediately after removing them from the oven.
