Step 1: Cook the Tater Tots
Preheat your oven according to the package instructions.
Spread the frozen Tater Tots in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until crispy and golden brown, usually about 20–25 minutes.
For extra crispiness, flip them halfway through baking.
Once done, set aside while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
Step 2: Make the Sausage Gravy
Heat a skillet over medium heat.
Add the breakfast sausage and cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until fully browned and cooked through.
Sprinkle the flour evenly over the cooked sausage and stir well. Cook for 1–2 minutes to eliminate any raw flour taste.
Gradually pour in the milk while stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
Continue cooking for about 5 minutes, or until the gravy thickens to a smooth, creamy consistency.
Season with salt and black pepper.
Remove from heat and keep warm.
Step 3: Scramble the Eggs
While the gravy thickens, cook the eggs.
Crack the eggs into a bowl, whisk lightly, and pour into a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Stir gently until the eggs are fully cooked but still soft and fluffy.
Avoid overcooking — slightly creamy scrambled eggs add the perfect texture to this bowl.
