Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein Ingredients:
- 4 large eggs, scrambled
- 4 strips bacon, cooked & crumbled (or sausage)
Cheese Ingredients:
- ½ cup (120 ml) shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup (120 ml) shredded mozzarella cheese
Base and Additional Ingredients:
- 1 pre-made pizza dough (or 12-inch flatbread)
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) olive oil
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ cup (120 ml) diced bell peppers (optional)
- ¼ cup (60 ml) red onion, diced
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- Chopped green onions or fresh parsley
- Hot sauce or salsa (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the pizza foundation by stretching the dough onto a clean surface, ensuring an even thickness. Massage olive oil across the entire surface and dust with fragrant garlic powder for an aromatic base.
- Create creamy scrambled eggs by whisking them in a skillet over moderate heat. Gently fold the eggs, seasoning with salt and pepper, until they reach a soft, slightly runny consistency – remembering they will continue cooking in the oven.
- Layer the pizza canvas strategically, spreading a generous blanket of cheddar and mozzarella cheese across the dough. Distribute the delicate scrambled eggs evenly, then artfully arrange crispy bacon pieces, vibrant bell peppers, and sharp red onion slices.
- Transfer the pizza to a preheated oven calibrated at 425F (220C). Allow the pizza to transform for 12-15 minutes, watching for a golden, crisp crust and fully melted cheese.
- Remove from the oven and enhance the visual and flavor profile by sprinkling fresh green onions across the surface. Optional: Drizzle hot sauce for an extra kick of heat. Slice into wedges and serve immediately while the pizza radiates warmth and flavor.
Notes
- Customize the dough by using whole wheat or gluten-free pizza crust to accommodate different dietary needs.
- Prep eggs slightly undercooked since they’ll continue cooking in the oven, preventing dry or rubbery texture.
- Use silicone baking mat or parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy pizza removal.
- Experiment with alternative protein options like turkey bacon, ham, or vegetarian sausage crumbles for diverse flavor profiles and dietary preferences.
