Over Easy Breakfast Pizza Recipe with Eggs

This breakfast pizza recipe with eggs is great for flexible meals.

by Hannah McClure

My kitchen and meals are much like the seasons out in nature. Some seasons are busy and full and others are slow and calm. I find myself in the kitchen with every season of life, but in the busy and full seasons I find that I reach for quick, easy, and simple meals like a breakfast pizza.

The fresh ingredients are often more available in the busy season and I love to incorporate those into the meals. While in the slower seasons, I find myself baking and cooking more from scratch and taking the time to connect with the process. reaching for fresh ingredients that I’d preserved and tucked away when I had it.

No matter the season, this recipe is a lovely brunch to be made with fresh ingredients. The breakfast pizza recipe is written so that if you cannot get a hold of fresh ingredients from your own yard, you may use locally sourced or store bought. and if you cannot make the dough from scratch, you may substitute with store bought. No matter how you make it, I hope you and your family love this one in all seasons. 

Ingredients

• 1 pizza dough of choice (store bought or homemade) chilled 
• 3 tablespoon Olive Oil
• 2 large clove minced garlic, divided
• 1 handful fresh spinach 
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes
• 1 orange bell pepper, thin sliced 
• 6 to 8 slices bacon, chopped, par cooked (they will crisp up in the oven)
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella
• 1/2 cup shredded Munster cheese
• Salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste
• 4 to 6 large, fresh eggs

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. 
2. Split dough into 4 to 6 balls of equal size. 
3. On a lightly floured surface, roll each dough ball into ovals. Thickness of the dough should be rolled out to your preference. About 1/4 inch. Remember that pizza dough typically has yeast so your dough will rise. 
4. Par-bake the crust in preheated oven for 4 minutes. Remove from oven.- Gently flip each crust. Use caution as the crust will be hot.
5. Brush each oval crush with Olive Oil.
6. Top with minced garlic, spinach, mozzarella, tomatoes and bell peppers. 
7. Gently break the an egg over the center of your pizza. Being sure not to break the yolk (like when frying an over easy egg)
8. Season with salt, pepper, red pepper flakes to taste.
9. Top with Munster cheese and chopped bacon.
10. Bake in preheated over for 8 to 10 minutes. Your crust should be golden brown and the egg should be set and look like an over easy egg. 
11. Allow to cool 5 minutes before serving.
12. Store left overs in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
13. Serves well with a bowl of fresh mixed fruits of the season or Granola and yogurt of choice.
