Delicious cheese crust breakfast pizza: a hearty morning delight recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • Shredded Mozzarella Cheese: 2 cups
  • Shredded Cheddar Cheese: 1 cup
  • Eggs: 6 large
  • Milk: 1/4 cup
  • Cooked Breakfast Sausage: 1/2 cup, crumbled
  • Diced Red Bell Pepper: 1/2 cup
  • Chopped Green Onions: 1/4 cup
  • Salt and Pepper: to taste

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-inch pizza pan.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, mix together the mozzarella and cheddar cheeses. Press the cheese mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pizza pan to form a crust.
  3. Step 3: Bake the cheese crust for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and melted.
  4. Step 4: While the crust is baking, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl.
  5. Step 5: Remove the cheese crust from the oven and pour the egg mixture into the crust. Sprinkle with cooked sausage, red bell pepper, and green onions.
  6. Step 6: Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the topping is lightly browned. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Store leftover pizza in the refrigerator, well-covered, for up to 3 days for best flavor.
  • For a quick reheat, try microwaving individual slices for 30-60 seconds, or until warmed through.
  • Serve each slice with a dollop of sour cream or a drizzle of hot sauce for an extra kick!
  • Don't overcrowd the pan with toppings; a light layer allows the eggs to cook evenly.
