Breakfast Pizza
We go through at least three dozen eggs each week. For breakfast, lunch , nd dinner. Fried, poached and hard-boiled. How many eggs do you go through each week?
Pizza isn’t just for lunch and dinner anymore. Breakfast pizza is easy to make and great for brunches, breakfasts and weekday mornings on the run. This scrambled egg pizza can be made ahead of time and reheated as needed.
Scrambled Egg Pizza printable recipe
1 pound pizza dough
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 scallions chopped
1 cup sliced grape tomatoes
1 cup cooked crumbled bacon
1 1/2 cups shredded Mozzarella Cheese
4 eggs
4 tablespoons water
4 basil leaves, sliced
2-4 tablespoons cornmeal
Having all your ingredients ready helps to make putting the pizza together easily.
Just a few simple steps and breakfast is on the table.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Use a 16 oz pizza dough ball from the store or make pizza dough. Sprinkle cornmeal over pizza baking pan so that dough doesn’t stick to the pan.
Stretch pizza dough to fit pizza pan. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil spread over dough.
Spread Mozzarella Cheese, then add bacon, scallions, and tomatoes on top. Stir eggs with water in a bowl until mixed well and pour on top of other ingredients. Bake for 8-10 minutes until crust is crisp and eggs are thoroughly cooked.
Tips:
Place cornmeal in a shaker container to apply gently and easily for a light even coating to the pan so the dough doesn’t stick.
Pizza dough should be at room temperature as it’s easier to spread out and rises evenly
A well-preheated oven bakes pizza better than one than one that just came to temperature.
*I was compensated by General Mills for this recipe, all opinions are my own. Those are priceless.

November 12, 2011 at 8:53 pmI didn’t put the eggs to the edge I poured it a few inches in from the edge. I don’t believe it would run off. The egg mixture is fairly thick. My pizza pans have a slight curve at the edge, but I would certainly give it a try and pour it towards the center.

November 12, 2011 at 7:57 pmI’d pass on the tomatoes (add extra bacon!) but that’s just me. This is a wonderful breakfast pizza…can I come for a sleep-over!?
Diane says
November 12, 2011 at 9:08 pmYes, Paula please come over so I can make you breakfast, with extra bacon. I’ll put on what ever toppings you’d like 🙂

November 13, 2011 at 11:02 amI love this recipe. I usually go with a frittata or quiche, but this is such a fun dish in place of the usual breakfast! I’ll take any excuse to eat pizza!

November 13, 2011 at 12:35 pmYou might want to mention using a pan with a lip- I used a regular baking sheet that my pizza didn’t fill, and my egg spilled all over it.

November 13, 2011 at 8:08 pmWe go through a lot of eggs, too. Maybe not 3 dozen, but alot. I am salivating over this pizza. Breakfast pizzas are some of my favorites and I just don’t make them often enough.
