Breakfast Pizza
Breakfast pizza has fluffy, scrambled eggs, cooked, crumbled bacon and plenty of cheese for a warm, melty and seriously fun breakfast!
Yield: 10 -12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 (13.8 oz.) package of refrigerated pizza dough
- 9 large eggs
- 8-9 pieces cooked, crumbled bacon
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400. Grease a 15x10 inch baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Unroll the pizza dough and press to spread out across the entire baking sheet. Pierce the dough with a fork all over.
- Bake at 400 for 8 minutes, or as instructed on the package. Remove and set aside.
- Meanwhile, cook the eggs. Crack the eggs in a large bowl and whisk well with a fork. Add a splash of water and season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large skillet over medium low heat. Coat with butter, oil or cooking spray. Add eggs and cook until set, stirring occasionally.
- While the eggs are cooking, cook your bacon. You can cook it in the microwave, oven or in a skillet, whichever you prefer. I like to do the microwave. I place the bacon slices on a doubled-up paper towel, cover with another paper towel and microwave on high for 6-7 minutes, adding additional time if needed. Crumble the bacon and set aside.
- Add the scrambled eggs to the pre-baked pizza dough, spreading them out so they are evenly distributed. Add the mozzarella and cheddar cheeses then sprinkle with the bacon.
- Return the pizza to the oven and bake at 400 for 5-7 more minutes, until cheese is melted. Serve immediately.
Notes
Bacon: You can cook your bacon in the microwave, oven or stove-top; however you prefer. You can also substitute cooked, crumbled breakfast sausage if you prefer. Or leave it off if you want this to be vegetarian.
Storing and reheating leftovers:
- Leftover pizza, once cooled, can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Reheat one or more pieces in the microwave or toaster oven until warmed through. The bacon will lose its crunch, but it’s still delicious. The toaster oven, in my opinion, helps the pizza dough get its texture back. It will go completely soft in the microwave. Just depends on your preference.
- I don’t recommend freezing leftovers.
