Wake up your mornings with a vibrant twist on a classic — the Savory Sunrise Breakfast Pizza! Perfect for weekend brunches or a special breakfast treat, this recipe combines all your favorite breakfast elements on a crispy pizza crust.
The foundation of our pizza is a pre-made thin pizza crust, which makes the whole process quick and fuss-free. Eggs are the star, providing a rich and fluffy base. Adding a touch of milk helps scramble them to perfection. Cheddar cheese melts beautifully, offering a sharp contrast to the creamy eggs. Bacon brings a savory, crispy element that's hard to resist. We use bell peppers and mushrooms for a splash of color and earthy flavor. Green onions add a fresh, mild bite at the end. A drizzle of olive oil ensures everything cooks evenly, while salt, pepper, oregano, and garlic powder enhance the flavors, giving the pizza a slight Italian twist.
This breakfast pizza pairs wonderfully with a fresh fruit salad or a simple arugula salad tossed with lemon vinaigrette. If you're feeling indulgent, a mimosa or a bloody mary would complement it perfectly.
First things first, set your oven to preheat at 425°F (220°C). While that's warming up, grab a medium-sized bowl and whisk together the eggs, milk, a pinch of salt, and a dash of pepper. You want them well-mixed but not frothy.
Next, heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Toss in the mushrooms and bell peppers, sautéing them until they've softened. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Once they're done, pour in the egg mixture right into the skillet. Stir gently, scrambling until the eggs are just set — still a bit creamy is perfect. Remove this from the heat as soon as it's done.
Place your pizza crust onto a baking sheet. Brush the crust lightly with olive oil, then sprinkle evenly with garlic powder and dried oregano. This simple step packs a flavor punch that makes all the difference.
Spread the scrambled eggs over the crust in an even layer. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese generously over the eggs, followed by the crumbled bacon. Finally, add the sautéed vegetables and top it all off with a scattering of sliced green onions.
Pop the pizza into your preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes. You'll know it's ready when the cheese is melted, bubbly, and the crust has turned a lovely golden brown. Slice it up and serve immediately for a breakfast that's sure to impress!
