Bacon and Cheddar Breakfast Pizza

By srumbel

But I don’t only love the sweeter side of breakfast foods. I’m a big fan of the savory stuff too! Crispy, salty bacon with a pile of soft scrambled eggs and some cheddar cheese melted on top… now that’s how I like to start my Saturday mornings! But some weekends I like to switch up the usual bacon and eggs routine and turn it into a delicious, beautiful Bacon and Cheddar Breakfast Pizza!

Ingredients

• 1 package refrigerated pizza crust dough (I used Pillsbury thin crust)
• 6 slices bacon, chopped
• 10 eggs, beaten
• 1/4 cup milk
• 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
• 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 green onions, chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400ºF. Spread the pizza crust on a baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes.
In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon until crisp and remove to a plate. Drain all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon drippings from the skillet. Add the eggs and milk to a bowl and whisk until well combined. Pour the eggs into the skillet with bacon drippings and scramble until just set, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard in a small bowl and spread a thin layer over the pizza crust as a “sauce”. Add the scrambled eggs over the sauce, then top with the cheddar cheese and bacon. Bake the pizza for another 5-7 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and cut into slices to serve.
