For the Toppings:
* 6-8 eggs (scrambled to your liking) * 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese. * * 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon or sausage (I prefer bacon, but I can’t eat it). What are some good sausages? ) * Optional: Diced green onions, chopped bell peppers, sliced mushrooms, drizzle of maple syrup.
What are the steps to
Step 1: Preheat & Prep Pan
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish. I like to use a little cooking spray, but you can also grease it with butter. How do you slice a pizza?
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. How does baking powder work? What are lumps in flour?
Step 3: Mix Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, sugar, and egg. The butter should be melted but not too hot, or it might cook the eggs. You want the wet ingredients to be well combined before adding them to the dry ingredients.
Step 4: Combine
How do you mix wet and dry ingredients? What can you do to make a tough pizza base? You want the batter to be smooth but not overworked.
Step 5: Prepare Toppings
What are some ways to scramble eggs to your liking? I like to scramble my eggs with a little milk or cream for extra fluffiness. Cook your bacon or sausage and crumble it into bite-sized pieces. How do you shred cheese and chop any other toppings you’re using?
Step 6: Assemble the Pizza
How do I spread the batter in a baking dish? Sprinkle the cheese over the batter, then top with the scrambled eggs and bacon or sausage. Add any other toppings you’re using. I like to drizzle a little maple syrup over the top for sweetness, but that’s optional.
Step 7: Bake
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean. Keep an eye on it towards the end of the baking time to prevent it from burning.
Step 8: Cool & Serve
Let the pizza cool completely before serving. How do I cut eggs in half?

How do I make a perfect breakfast pizza?
What are some of the best ways to make a good breakfast pizza?
Don’t Overmix:If you overmix the batter, you will end up with a tough pizza base. What are some lumps? Mix until just combined.
What is the best way to use fresh baking powder?Make sure your baking powder is fresh, or the pizza base won’t rise properly. If you put a spoonful in hot water, it’s good to go.
How do you pre-cook your If you’re using any toppings that need to be cooked, like bacon or sausage, make sure to cook them before adding them to the pizza. This will ensure that they’re fully cooked and won’t make the pizza soggy.
Customize Your Toppings: The possibilities are endless when it comes to toppings! Use your favorite breakfast ingredients and don’t be afraid to experiment. Some of my favorite additions include diced ham, sliced mushrooms, chopped bell peppers, and spinach.
Don’t Overbake the Eggs: You want the eggs to be set but still slightly soft. Overbaking them will result in dry, rubbery eggs.
Let It Cool Slightly: Let the pizza cool slightly before slicing and serving. This will help the eggs set a little more and make it easier to cut.
I’ve learned that the key to a perfect breakfast pizza is to not be afraid to get creative! I once accidentally added a pinch of nutmeg to the batter, and it turned out amazing. Now I always add it!
Storing and Reheating Tips
Here’s how to store and reheat your leftover Breakfast Pizza:
Room Temperature: You can store the pizza at room temperature for up to 2 hours. After that, it should be refrigerated.
Refrigerator Storage: Store the pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Freezer Instructions: You can also freeze the pizza for longer storage. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil, or store it in a freezer-safe container. It can be frozen for up to 2 months.
Glaze Timing Advice: I usually add any drizzles or glazes right before serving for the best texture.
Reheating: Reheat the pizza in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. You can also reheat it in the microwave, but it might not be as crispy.
I find that reheating it in a skillet with a little butter gives it the best crispy edges!
