Grab These at the Grocery Store
The great thing about this breakfast pizza is that it’s made with breakfast favorites you might already have on hand. A full list of ingredients with measurements for beef pot pie is available in the printable recipe card below.
- Refrigerated crescent rolls – I love the flakey, buttery flavor of crescent rolls. Plus, opening the can is the hardest part of it all!
- Ground breakfast sausage – I like using a mild breakfast sausage, but try a spicier version if you want to up the heat level.
- Bacon – It’s easiest to crumble bacon when it’s crispy. My favorite way to make bacon is in the oven!
- Frozen shredded hash brown potatoes – Make sure these are thawed before using. Or if you have lots of extra time, feel free to shred your own!
- Colby jack cheese – Freshly shredded cheese is always the best option. It melts smoother than bagged cheese, that has an additive preventing it from sticking but also melting.
- Large eggs – A scrambled egg mixture will be poured over the entire pizza, creating a fluffy base to hold everything together.
- Whole milk – You can really use any milk you have on hand. It just adds moisture and fluff to our eggs.
- Seasonings – I used a simple blend of garlic powder, onion powder, fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to season this breakfast pizza.
- Chives – These are optional, but when chopped and added as a garnish, they add both texture and flavor to this dish.
Let’s Make It!
Making this breakfast pizza is easier than you may think! Just follow these simple instructions.
- Spread crust into pan. Using a pizza tray or cast iron pan, separate the crescent rolls into triangles, meeting in the middle to form a circle and then spread out using your fingers, forming a crust to hold all of the fixings in.
- Add meat, hashbrowns and cheese. Spoon the cooked breakfast sausage, bacon and thawed hashbrowns on the crust. Top with the colby jack cheese. Set aside.
- Combine eggs, milk and seasonings and pour over crust. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and seasonings. Pour the raw egg mixture over the cheese (this is why it is necessary to build that rimmed crust).
- Bake until the edges of the crust are golden brown and the eggs are set.
- Allow to rest and enjoy. Remove and allow to rest before garnishing with chives, slicing and serving.
5S Philosophy 👩🏻
- Salt – While I already use some salt to season the egg mixture, you can always add a sprinkle of flakey sea salt to the top of your breakfast pizza for extra flavor.
- Seasonings – If you want to take the spice level up a notch, try adding some crushed red pepper flakes on top. You can even swap the garlic powder for fresh garlic for a stronger garlic flavor.
- Sauces – Take this breakfast pizza one step further by topping it with homemade sausage gravy. Or just serve some on the side for dipping.
- Swaps – Looking for a vegetarian option? Swap the bacon and sausage for veggies like peppers, onions and mushrooms. Instead of colby jack, swap in your favorite cheese.
- Senses – Wake up to the irresistible aroma of sizzling bacon, melted cheese, and freshly baked crust crisping to perfection. Each bite is a dreamy combination of gooey, golden cheese, fluffy scrambled eggs, and the smoky crunch of bacon or sausage, all resting on a warm, buttery crust
Make it A Meal
The nice thing about this breakfast pizza is that it’s basically an entire meal in and of itself. It’s got the bread, potatoes, eggs and meat that you would normally order in a traditional breakfast.
You can always serve it with some fresh fruit salad or even a nice fruit smoothie too. If you want even more potatoes, try serving it with our favorite crispy home fries.
