If you need a review of Casey’s sausage gravy breakfast pizza – here you go – it’s awesome!!! All of their pizza is so good! You might not expect it from a little gas station – but their specialty is donuts and pizza. Yum! All homemade! (That photo is an authentic slice from Marion, Iowa!)
Did you know that 1/3 of the nation’s pork is grown in Iowa? I know – I live in Cincinnati now – and we call ourselves “Porkopolis” – but who we kiddin? That’s Iowa baby!!! Corn, beans and pigs. It’s how we do!

What’s on Casey’s Breakfast Pizza?
Casey’s has 3 kinds of breakfast pizza: sausage, bacon and veggie (peppers and onions). You can get either sausage gravy or cheese sauce for your “pizza sauce”. Then you pile on scrambled eggs, mozzarella and cheddar cheese. If you’re ordering the breakfast pizza – you can choose your sauce and toppings – but most of the time – you just go in and pick it up because it’s already made. Yummy!
I love that their pizzas have bacon or pork – it’s such a great source of protein! When you’re cooking bacon for this – you should undercook it a touch because it’s going to bake and cook a little more. So I would avoid making it crispy.

How to make breakfast pizza with eggs?
This recipe for breakfast pizza is super easy and doesn’t take much time. First, I use a premade crust – it’s just too easy not to – and this recipe is about the toppings! Then you prep your toppings: scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage. (I bake my scrambled eggs!). After that – put them together. You can use either sausage gravy or cheese sauce for your “pizza sauce” – I tried both and they’re both delicious. I made a bacon breakfast pizza with sausage gravy and then a sausage breakfast pizza with cheese sauce! After your pizzas are topped, you just bake them until the cheese melts!
A lot of folks question – when is pork done?! If you’re cooking ground pork or sausage – it should be 160 degrees – but most other cuts are done at 145 degrees! Here’s an easy to check chart for cooking temps for pork!

This is my sausage and scrambled egg breakfast pizza! Looks good – right? My bestie sent me the photo of the Casey’s pizza to make sure mine looked just right – I think I did a pretty good job!
And while this recipe is born in Iowa, I’ve been to pork farms here in Ohio! I love going for visits – I learned so much from Uncle Squeals and I get to see piglets. Come on – that’s too cute!
Can I make breakfast pizza the night before?

If you’re looking for other delicious breakfast recipes -you have to check out my Breakfast Gumbo – the idea came from a gas station in Alabama! I also just made a bacon and sausage French toast bake – omg – what a revolution that was – it’s amazing!!! I can’t believe I waited so long to try it! Or if you want something more simple – there’s a Farmhouse Breakfast Casserole – it’s my baked eggs with a bunch of yummy stuff added to it.

I know I use to work at Casey's there pizza is the best. I really liked the taco pizza.
I would love to get the copycat Taco Pizza if you have it.
i love any and all taco pizza!!!!
I lived in Iowa for 4 years. Casey's pizza and donuts are 2nd to none!
I don't eat much meat or dairy anymore, but, dang, that looks good.
I used to make breakfast pizza a lot, and be lying if I said I didn't miss it. But, I can't stand to watch one more video of animals being tortured on farms and know that I'm contributing to that.
I'm sorry you've had that experience – I have visited many farms in Iowa and Ohio – and have never seen anything but wonderful care of animals. You should check out my post with Uncle Squeals – I visited his pig farm and felt 100% comfortable with everything. thefoodhussy.com/2017/01/food-hussy-my-visit-with-uncle-squeals.html
Any way I could bake in a 9×13 then bring to work for my team for a Christmas breakfast?? I have a decently long commute but could reheat in a microwave if needed. Or, I do have a casserole carry bag, too. Main concern is the 9/13 or at least something that would travel well?
Definitely! Especially if you're using a pizza crust that you make yourself – and spread in the pan – or even a roll out crust – no problem at all!!!!
so I want to use this dough, its not a premade crust, weisenberger.com/Weisenberger_Pizza_Crust_Mix_p/4105.5.htm
should I just follow their directions for baking using your toppings?
Their directions say bake at 500 lowest rack 10 min till golden brown and toppings are hot.
Yup!
So do I need to cook the scrambled egg before adding it? Or just beat eggs together and pour onto crust?
Cook the eggs first! 🙂
I made this!! Instead of pizza crust I used the biscuits that come in the can. Smashed them down to make a crust. Sooooo good!!
I am a mom of 4 boys. Needless to say they keep me very busy. Have you ever tried o freeze this? Do you think it would hold well?
I have not – but I think you could! If you’re using a pre-made crust like a boboli – you definitely could – i would be sure it’s covered tightly with plastic wrap, etc. you could also par-bake it – like maybe half way – that way you can thaw it and bake it the rest of the way
Thanks for the blog that was loaded full of information.
Definitely trying this weekend! I’m drooling 🤤 just reading the recipe!!!
Thanks for sharing 👍

You’ll love it! It’s a fav of mine!
Hello. I’m writing from Easton, MD. Can you believe I only had my introduction to breakfast pizza this past weekend at a little general store located in Lamoine, ME? It was delicious! Where has it been all my life — do I live under a rock?! Now, planning a girlfriends weekend in Ocean City, MD, I would like to make and serve this “new” recipe. You mention this can be made a night before. Can the entire pizza be assembled and then just bake it the next day as per regular recipe?
Enjoyed reading your comments about having this staple in your home state of Iowa. Us Marylanders are way behind!
Yeah – if you’re using a premade crust (like a Boboli) – you could make it up and then put it in the fridge. Baking will probably take a little longer because your ingredients will be cold (eggs/sausage). Glad you’re going to try it!!!!
What is the best brand of premade cheese sauce to use to get it as close to the original as possible? We lived in Iowa for 3 years and absolutely love their breakfast pizza.
It depends on your casey’s – if they used sausage gravy – i would use bob evans or make my own. for the cheese sauce – they use a canned nacho cheese sauce – i use Rico’s – https://www.walmart.com/ip/Ricos-Gourmet-Nacho-Cheddar-Cheese-Sauce-15-0-OZ/10452386
I have some premade crusts that are frozen. Do they need to be thawed or pile stuff on and bake frozen?
I would probably thaw part-way at least
What kind of pizza crust did you use?
I just used a premade store bought – i keep trying different ones to see if i can find one i like!
Can’t wait to try this! Is the pizza dough supposed to be cooked before you put the toppings on?
It depends on what kind of crust you’re using but probably not. I used a pre-cooked premade type crust for these recipes – but i’ve also used a pre-made pizza dough I just follow whatever directions are on the package. I haven’t made my own dough yet!
What brand of cheese sauce do you use? Miss me some Casey’s breakfast pizza!!! I live in Virginia now… way too far!!
I used Rico’s Nacho Cheese sauce – but you could use something like this nacho cheese sauce or even a Velveeta cheese sauce – i like a little zing!
Looks fabulous, but I want the recipe for the sausage gravy! Do you have one?
you can either make it:

or there are canned versions or packets that you can buy:

Hi,
Do you cook your bacon and sausage before placing on the crust?
Yes – it’s noted in the ingredients they should be cooked. Feel free to undercook them a bit so they don’t get too overdone when you bake the pizza.
Which kind of pizza crust is the best
i just used a pre-made boboli type
Which kind of sausage gravy is the best and which kind of pizza crust
Typically I use a pre-made crust (ala Boboli) and for gravy I either use Bob Evans (freezer or near bacon) or I make my own (recipe to come)
Oh. My. Goodness.!! Fellow Iowan here who LOVES Caseys pizza! Thank you for sharing, I’m anxious to give this a try!
I love easy recipes like this! My kids love pizza, and I am going to make this for lunch. Yum!
