Description

A delicious and savory breakfast pizza featuring a crispy crust topped with scrambled eggs, melted mozzarella and cheddar cheeses, savory bacon or sausage, and fresh vegetables. Perfect for a hearty morning meal that serves four.


Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for brushing dough)
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon (crumbled) or cooked sausage (crumbled)

Optional Toppings

  • 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup fresh spinach
  • 1/4 cup green onions, sliced
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon fresh herbs (such as parsley or basil)


Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats to get it hot and ready for crisping the crust.
  2. Roll Out Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired size and shape, ensuring an even thickness for uniform baking.
  3. Prepare the Dough: Transfer the rolled-out dough to a baking sheet or pizza stone. Brush the surface with olive oil to promote a crispy crust during baking.
  4. Mix Eggs: In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs together with milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  5. Cook Scrambled Eggs: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the egg mixture, stirring constantly, until fully scrambled and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
  6. Add Mozzarella Cheese: Spread a thin, even layer of shredded mozzarella cheese over the oiled pizza dough to create a melty base.
  7. Layer Toppings: Spoon the scrambled eggs evenly over the mozzarella layer. Top with crumbled cooked bacon or sausage, diced bell peppers, fresh spinach, and sliced green onions as desired.
  8. Add Cheddar and Seasoning: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top of the assembled toppings. Add red pepper flakes if a bit of heat is preferred.
  9. Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust turns golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  10. Garnish: Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle fresh herbs such as parsley or basil over the hot pizza for an aromatic finish.
  11. Serve: Slice the breakfast pizza and serve immediately while hot. Enjoy a hearty and flavorful morning meal!

Notes

  • You can substitute bacon with sausage or even keep it vegetarian by omitting meat and adding more veggies.
  • Use a pizza stone if available for a crispier crust, otherwise a baking sheet works well.
  • Add or omit optional vegetables based on preference and availability.
  • This recipe can be customized with different cheeses or herbs to suit your taste.
  • Make sure to keep an eye on the pizza while baking to prevent the crust and cheese from burning.
