Why You'll Love this Breakfast Pizza

This is a fantastic breakfast or brunch recipe or even a breakfast-for-dinner idea!
The combination of the cheesy pizza with fresh tomatoes and basil is an already delightful combination but the just cooked, runny eggs take it over the top!

Breakfast Pizza Ingredients

Pizza Dough - use your favorite pizza dough recipe or buy a premade dough from the store. I've made this recipe with both Whole Foods and Trader Joe's premade dough and it's great!
Parmesan Cheese - use grated parmesan cheese or grate your own!
Mozzarella Cheese - I buy a pre-shredded mozzarella to cut down on time, but if you'd like to grate your own buy low-moisture mozzarella.
Cherry Tomatoes - fresh cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes work great for this recipe. If you use a larger tomato, I would recommend removing some of the seeds and moisture before adding to the pizza dough.
Green Onions - use a few fresh green onions or scallions to top the pizza for some lovely allium flavor.
Eggs - you'll use three large eggs for this recipe. But the pizza can handle up to 4 eggs if you'd like to add an additional one.
Fresh Basil - not an essential, but an absolutely delicious addition, fresh basil adds a brightness to the pizza.
Salt & Pepper - sprinkle on salt and pepper to finish the dish.

Tips for Making Breakfast Pizza

If you are using a premade, refrigerated dough, allow it to come closer to room temperature before stretching or rolling it. This allows the dough to be more pliable.
If you are using a pizza stone, preheat it in the oven while the oven is coming to temperature.
If you are baking the pizza on a sheet pan, use a rimmed baking sheet and oiling it with olive oil, avocado oil, or vegetable oil before placing the pizza dough on top.
If you would prefer to use a silpat or piece of parchment paper on your baking sheet, the pizza may need a minute or two longer of baking time to get crispy.
