Description

This English Muffin Breakfast Pizza is a quick and delicious morning treat featuring toasted English muffins topped with fluffy scrambled eggs, savory sausage or bacon, and a melty blend of cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 English muffins, split in half
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup cooked breakfast sausage or bacon, crumbled
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Chopped chives or green onions for garnish (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat and toast muffins: Preheat the oven to 375°F. Arrange the split English muffins on a baking sheet, cut side up, and toast them in the oven for 5 minutes until slightly crisp.
  2. Prepare scrambled eggs: While the muffins toast, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper. Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, then pour in the egg mixture. Gently scramble the eggs until they are just set but still moist. Remove from heat to prevent overcooking.
  3. Assemble the pizzas: Spoon the scrambled eggs evenly onto each toasted muffin half. Top each with the crumbled breakfast sausage or bacon, then sprinkle with shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.
  4. Bake to melt cheese: Return the assembled muffins to the oven and bake for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  5. Garnish and serve: Remove from oven, garnish with chopped chives or green onions if desired, and serve warm for a satisfying breakfast treat.

Notes

  • Customize by adding sautéed vegetables, hot sauce, or avocado slices for extra flavor.
  • Great for make-ahead preparation: assemble and freeze before baking, then reheat in the oven when ready to serve.
  • Use your preferred breakfast meat or make it vegetarian by omitting the sausage or bacon.
