Description
A quick and easy breakfast pizza topped with sausage, eggs, and cheese, perfect for busy mornings or weekend brunch.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (12–16 oz) store-bought pizza dough, room temperature
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, for brushing
- 10–12 oz ground breakfast sausage
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk or cream
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced for garnish
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a pizza stone or an upside-down baking sheet inside to heat.
- Cook the sausage in a skillet over medium heat with chopped onion until browned and cooked through, about 6–8 minutes. Drain excess fat.
- Whisk eggs and milk in a bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper. Lightly beat the eggs.
- Scramble the eggs in a clean nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until just set but still soft, about 2–3 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Stretch or roll the dough into a 12-inch round or rectangle on a floured surface and brush with olive oil.
- Par-bake the crust for 5–6 minutes until it just starts to puff and color.
- Assemble the pizza with half the cheese, cooked sausage, scrambled eggs, and remaining cheese. Optionally add red pepper flakes.
- Return the pizza to the oven and bake for 6–8 more minutes until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden.
- Let it rest for 3–4 minutes, then scatter sliced green onions over the top, slice, and serve warm.
Notes
Use mild sausage for kids and spicy for adults. Shred your own cheese for better melt and flavor.
