* **1/4 cup all-purpose flour**
* **2 1/2 cups milk (whole milk works best)**

### Instructions:

1. **Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).**
Lightly grease a pie dish or small baking dish.

2. **Cook the sausage:**
In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Do not drain all the fat — you want some for flavor.

3. **Make the gravy:**
Add the butter to the cooked sausage. Once melted, sprinkle in the flour and stir to coat the meat. Cook for 1–2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

4. **Add milk and seasonings:**
Slowly whisk in the milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Add garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, and salt. Simmer until thickened to a creamy gravy consistency (about 5–7 minutes). Remove from heat.

5. **Assemble the pie:**
Pour the sausage gravy into your prepared dish. Gently lay the puff pastry sheet over the top, trimming and tucking the edges. Cut a few small slits in the top for steam to escape.

6. **Brush with egg wash:**
Beat the egg with a splash of water and brush it over the puff pastry for a golden, glossy finish.

7. **Bake:**
Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and fully puffed.

8. **Cool & serve:**
Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving — the filling will be piping hot!

## Make It Your Own

* **Add cheese** – A handful of shredded cheddar or pepper jack mixed into the gravy takes it to another level.
* **Add heat** – Crushed red pepper or spicy sausage for a kick.
* **Use mini ramekins** – For individual servings that look great at brunch.
