Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 4 English muffins, split in half

Egg Mixture

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup cooked breakfast sausage or crumbled bacon
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup diced bell pepper (optional)
  • 2 green onions, sliced


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Toast: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the English muffin halves cut-side up on a baking sheet. Place them in the oven and toast for 4–5 minutes until they turn just golden and slightly crisp.
  2. Scramble the Eggs: While the muffins toast, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture into the skillet and cook gently, stirring, until the eggs are softly scrambled and just set. Avoid overcooking for a creamy texture.
  3. Assemble the Pizzas: Spoon a generous amount of scrambled eggs onto each toasted English muffin half. Top each with cooked sausage or bacon, then sprinkle cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly. Add diced bell peppers and sliced green onions if desired to add a fresh crunch and color.
  4. Bake to Melt: Return the assembled pizzas to the oven and bake for 6–8 minutes, or until the cheese melts thoroughly and becomes bubbly and lightly golden around the edges.
  5. Serve Warm: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and serve the breakfast pizzas immediately to enjoy the warm, cheesy goodness.

Notes

  • Customize with your favorite toppings such as spinach, tomatoes, or avocado for added nutrients and flavor.
  • These breakfast pizzas are excellent for meal prepping—store leftovers in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven or toaster oven for best results.
