Ingredients for A Bit Different Breakfast Pizza

  • Prepared Pizza Crust
  • Sausage Patty
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite blend)

How to Make A Bit Different Breakfast Pizza

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Press 1 lb pizza dough into the bottom and sides of a 12-inch pizza pan.
  3. Bake for 5-7 minutes, until the crust is set but not browned.
  4. While the crust bakes, cut 1 lb sausage (or 8 oz ham/bacon) into small pieces and cook until browned. Drain excess grease.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs and 1/4 cup milk until frothy.
  6. Evenly distribute the cooked sausage (or ham/bacon) over the pre-baked crust.
  7. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite blend) over the sausage.
  8. Slowly pour the egg mixture over the sausage and cheese, ensuring even coverage.
  9. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  10. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the crust is golden brown.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
