Equipment
- 1 baking sheet or pizza stone
- 1 mixing bowl
- 1 frying pan
- 1 whisk
- 1 rolling pin
- 1 oven
Ingredients
- 12 oz pre-made pizza dough
- 8 oz breakfast sausage
- 4 large eggs
- ½ cup shredded cheese cheddar or mozzarella
- ¼ cup milk
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- chopped green onions or parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a frying pan over medium heat, add the breakfast sausage. Cook, breaking it apart with a spatula until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- In the same frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat, then pour in the egg mixture. Cook gently, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are scrambled but still slightly runny, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness, then transfer it onto a baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Spread the cooked sausage evenly over the pizza dough, followed by the scrambled eggs, and then top with shredded cheese.
- Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Remove from the oven, let it cool for a minute, then slice and garnish with chopped green onions or parsley if desired.
Notes
You can customize your pizza by adding vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms.
For a spicier kick, consider adding jalapeños or hot sauce to the egg mixture.
This recipe can be made ahead of time; simply assemble the pizza and store it in the fridge before baking.
