Easy Breakfast Pizza Recipe
This breakfast pizza recipe is based on one I grew up with: tasty toppings, and a crust based on my grandma's baking powder biscuits recipe!
Servings: 6 People
Calories: 1048kcal
Equipment
- Parchment Paper
Ingredients
- 1 lb Bacon
- 3-4 Large Eggs
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 3 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- ½ teaspoon Dried Oregano
- ⅓ cup Shortening
- ¾ cup Milk
- Baby Bella Mushrooms sliced
- 1 Green Bell Pepper sliced
- 1-2 cups Sharp Cheddar Cheese shredded
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Chop bacon into ½″ strips, cook til almost crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove bacon from pan and set aside, reserving drippings for other uses (May I recommend our “Epic Popcorn?).
- Whisk eggs and scramble just until set. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a medium sized bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, salt, and oregano.
- Measure shortening into the same bowl, and cut into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or fork(s). The ideal is to work it in until it’s evenly distributed throughout, in very small pieces. Add a handful or two of the bacon, stir gently to distribute.
- Add milk, stir until dough comes together. Don’t over stir or beat it.
- On prepared baking sheet, spread dough out, forming a crust that is of even thickness – between ½″ – ¾″ thick. Evenly distribute scrambled egg over the crust, and top with mushrooms, green peppers, and remaining bacon (use whatever amounts of each that you like). Scatter cheese over the entire pizza.
- Bake for 12-15 mins, or until dough is cooked through.
