For the Sausage Gravy:

• 8 oz 99% lean ground turkey sausage (or plant-based crumbles)
• 2 tbsp all-purpose flour (or cornstarch for gluten-free)
• 1.5 cups unsweetened almond milk (or skim milk)
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder

• 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
• Salt and black pepper to taste

Toppings:

• 1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
• 2 green onions, sliced
• Optional: Diced tomatoes, spinach, or jalapeños

Instructions

1. Prep the Crust:
   Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Press biscuit dough into a greased 12-inch pizza pan or baking sheet, sealing seams to form a crust. Par-bake for 8 minutes.
2. Cook the Sausage:
   In a skillet over medium heat, brown turkey sausage until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
3. Make the Gravy:
   Sprinkle flour over the sausage and stir for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in almond milk, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Simmer 3–5 minutes until thickened.
4. Assemble the Pizza:
   Spread sausage gravy over the par-baked crust. Sprinkle cheese and green onions (and optional veggies).
5. Bake:
   Return to the oven for 10–12 minutes until crust is golden and cheese melts.
6. Serve:
   Slice into 6 pieces and enjoy hot!
