Description
Looking for a fun, fast, and flavorful way to start your day? This English Muffin Breakfast Pizza Recipe delivers everything you love about pizza with a morning twist.
Ingredients
- 2 English muffins, split in half
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup cooked sausage or bacon bits (optional)
- 1/4 cup chopped bell peppers
- 2 tbsp chopped green onion or chives
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Butter or oil, for greasing muffin tins (if baking eggs separately)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
2. Prep your muffins
Split English muffins in half and lay them on the baking sheet, cut-side up. Lightly toast in the oven for 3–4 minutes while you prep the toppings.
3. Add sauce and toppings
If using sauce, spread a thin layer on each muffin. Top with shredded cheese, cooked sausage or veggies, and make a small well in the center for the egg.
4. Crack the egg
Crack one egg onto each muffin half. For a more controlled cook, you can bake the eggs separately in a muffin tin and place them on top afterward.
5. Bake
Place the tray back in the oven and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until egg whites are set and yolks are done to your liking. Cheese should be melted and bubbly.
6. Garnish and serve
Top with green onions, extra pepper, or hot sauce. Serve hot and enjoy your English muffin breakfast pizza right away.
Notes
- Toast the muffins first to prevent sogginess.
- Use room temperature eggs to avoid undercooking.
- Add cheese on top of the egg for a meltier texture.
- Don’t overload toppings—too much can prevent the egg from cooking evenly.
- Broil at the end for extra golden cheese and crispy edges.
