Serves: 4 (2 halves per person)

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 10-12 minutes


Ingredients:

For the Base:

  • 4 English muffins , split in half
  • 1 tablespoon butter , melted

For the Toppings:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup cooked turkey bacon , crumbled
  • 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup diced onions
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano (optional)

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) . Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: Prepare the English Muffins

  1. Brush the split sides of the English muffins with melted butter.
  2. Place the muffin halves, buttered side up, on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3: Cook the Eggs

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are scrambled and just set (about 3-5 minutes). Avoid overcooking to keep them soft and creamy.

Step 4: Assemble the Breakfast Pizzas

  1. Spoon the scrambled eggs evenly over each English muffin half.
  2. Sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese over the eggs.
  3. Top with crumbled turkey bacon, diced bell peppers, and diced onions. Sprinkle with dried oregano if desired.

Step 5: Bake

  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes , or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

  1. Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute before serving.
  2. Serve warm as a quick breakfast or brunch dish. Pair with hot sauce, salsa, or additional toppings like avocado slices for extra flavor.

Tips for Success:

  • Customize toppings: Swap turkey bacon for regular bacon, sausage, ham, or even smoked salmon. Add spinach, mushrooms, or tomatoes for extra veggies.
  • Make it vegetarian: Skip the turkey bacon and add sautéed veggies like zucchini, spinach, or mushrooms.
  • Meal prep option: Assemble the pizzas ahead of time (without baking) and store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Bake just before serving.
  • Freeze option: Freeze unbaked assembled pizzas on a baking sheet, then transfer to a zip-top bag. Bake directly from frozen, adding 2-3 minutes to the cooking time.
