How to Put Together a Breakfast Pizza
Fire up your oven to a toasty 425°F, creating the perfect environment for your morning masterpiece.
Spread out the pizza dough on a baking sheet, giving it a light coating of grease or parchment paper for easy sliding.
Whip eggs with a splash of milk, seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper. Gently cook them in a pan until they’re just barely set, keeping them soft and pillowy.
Drizzle olive oil across the dough, sprinkling garlic powder and black pepper for an extra flavor kick. Layer the scrambled eggs evenly, then shower the surface with cheese, crispy bacon bits, golden potato chunks, and bright green onion slices.
Slide your creation into the oven, letting it transform for 12-15 minutes until the cheese bubbles and the crust turns a beautiful golden brown.
Top with fresh green onions, juicy tomato bits, or creamy avocado slices. Cut into wedges and devour while it’s hot and irresistible!

Mouthwatering Breakfast Pizza Recipe
- Total Time: 25 minutes
- Yield: 5 1x
Description
Savory breakfast pizza elevates morning meals with a crispy crust, sunny-side-up eggs, and sizzling bacon. Delightful flavors and textures combine to create a mouthwatering morning experience you’ll crave again and again.
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made pizza dough (or 12-inch flatbread)
- 4 large eggs, scrambled
- 4 strips bacon, cooked & crumbled (or sausage)
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup diced bell peppers (optional)
- ¼ cup red onion, diced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp salt
- Chopped green onions or fresh parsley
- Hot sauce or salsa (optional)
Instructions
- Dough Preparation: Stretch pizza dough onto a greased baking sheet, ensuring even coverage and smooth surface.
- Egg Foundation: Whisk eggs with milk, seasoning with salt and pepper, then gently scramble until softly set but not completely dry.
- Flavor Layering: Drizzle olive oil across dough’s surface, sprinkle with garlic powder and black pepper for aromatic base. Distribute scrambled eggs evenly, creating uniform coverage.
- Topping Distribution: Generously scatter cheese, crispy bacon pieces, diced potatoes, and chopped green onions across the egg layer, ensuring balanced ingredient placement.
- Baking Transformation: Slide pizza into preheated 425°F (220°C) oven, baking for 12-15 minutes until cheese melts completely and crust achieves golden-brown perfection.
- Final Flourish: Remove from oven, garnish with additional green onions, fresh tomato cubes, or creamy avocado slices. Slice into wedges and serve immediately while piping hot.
Notes
- Slightly undercook scrambled eggs before baking, as they’ll continue cooking in the oven to prevent dry, rubbery texture.
- Sprinkle cheese in layers to ensure even melting and consistent flavor throughout the pizza.
- Par-boil or pre-roast potato cubes briefly to ensure they’re fully cooked and crispy when the pizza is done.
- Swap regular bacon for turkey bacon, use gluten-free pizza dough, or replace cheese with dairy-free alternatives for specific diet requirements.
