  • Skill Level: Simply whisk, pour, top, and broil! This beginner friendly recipe is great for cooks of all skill levels.
  • Prep Ahead: Chop the pepperoni and vegetables and shred the cheese ahead of time for an almost instant breakfast.

Ingredient Notes

  • Crust:
    • Eggs are the essential ingredient to create the sturdy crust.
    • Heavy cream adds richness and tenderness to the eggs.
    • Oregano brings a pizza flavor to the crust.
    • Salt and pepper enhances all the flavors.
  • Toppings:
    • Sliced mini pepperoni saves time chopping, but check labels for added sugars or starches so it stays low carb.
    • Diced green pepper or sliced mushrooms add pizza flavor to the eggs.
    • Mozzarella melts beautifully without adding excess water to the egg base.
    • Parmesan, while optional, gives the pizza a delicious salty finish.
    • Fresh herbs, like basil or parsley are also optional, and add a pop of color and flavor.
  • Tomato Sauce: A low carb sauce with little or no added sugar, is served beside the breakfast pizza instead of pouring it over the eggs.

Variations

  • For a firmer crust add ground sausage to the egg mixture. Low-carb tortillas can make a good base for the eggs to cook upon as well.
  • Italian seasoning mix makes an easy substitute for oregano, or add crushed red peppers for a bit spicier version.
  • You can add spinach, a few sliced olives, or even jalapenos.
  • Cheddar, provolone, or an Italian cheese blend can be substituted for mozzarella.
  • Omit the tomato sauce entirely because this breakfast pizza has plenty of flavor.

How to Make Breakfast Pizza

  1. Sauté the pepper or mushrooms (full recipe below).
  2. Whisk eggs with cream and oregano, pour them into the skillet, and cook.
  3. Sprinkle the egg base with mozzarella and pepperoni.
  4. Broil until the eggs are cooked and the cheese is melted, then garnish.

Breakfast Pizza Success

  • Using a small skillet keeps the two-egg base thick enough to stay tender and helps prevent overcooking.
  • Make sure the skillet is oven safe.
  • Reduce the heat after adding the eggs so the base cooks gently, allowing the bottom to set without becoming tough.
  • Cook vegetables before adding the eggs to prevent a soggy pizza.
  • Be careful when broiling not to scorch the eggs.

Leftovers Made Easy

  • Cool leftovers and store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days. Store the dipping sauce separately.
  • We don’t recommend freezing this recipe because the freezing and thawing changes te texture too much.
  • Reheat in the microwave or a covered skillet just until heated through. Do not overheat because it can become rubbery.
