How to Make Sheet Pan Breakfast Pizza
Step 1: Prepare the Pizza Crust
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a 10×15-inch sheet pan with parchment paper. Roll out the refrigerated pizza dough right in the pan, stretching it gently to the edges. Use a fork to prick the surface all over—this keeps the crust from bubbling as it bakes. Bake it for 7–8 minutes, just until it’s lightly golden and set.
Step 2: Soft-Scramble the Eggs
While your crust gets its head start, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, then pour in the eggs. Stir gently and patiently—your goal is soft, creamy scrambled eggs, just barely set. They’ll finish baking in the oven.
Step 3: Assemble the Pizza
Once your crust is ready, evenly spoon the soft scrambled eggs right over the top. Sprinkle with the crisp, chopped bacon, then finish with a lush blanket of cheddar cheese. Now it’s really starting to look like a Sheet Pan Breakfast Pizza!
Step 4: Bake and Serve
Pop your assembled pizza back into the oven and bake for 5–8 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Let it cool for a minute or two, then slice into squares and serve—preferably with lots of napkins and hungry friends at the ready!
Pro Tips for Making Sheet Pan Breakfast Pizza
- Crust Perfection: Pre-bake the dough for a few minutes before adding toppings—this keeps it crisp and sturdy, never soggy.
- Creamiest Eggs: Remove scrambled eggs from the heat while they’re still a little glossy; overcooked eggs will dry out during the final oven bake.
- Bacon Prep: Cook bacon in advance and chop it once crisp; pat dry to avoid excess grease sogging your pizza.
- Cheese Choices: Use freshly grated cheese for superior melt and flavor, or try a cheddar-jack blend for extra gooeyness.
How to Serve Sheet Pan Breakfast Pizza
Garnishes
Brighten up your Sheet Pan Breakfast Pizza with a scattering of fresh chives, sliced green onions, or even a spoonful of salsa for extra color and a flavor punch. A dash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper can also jazz up every bite.
Side Dishes
This breakfast pizza loves company! Serve it alongside a big fruit salad, crisp hash browns, or a bowl of creamy Greek yogurt for a well-rounded meal. For brunch buffets, a pitcher of orange juice or a side of mimosas never hurts either.
Creative Ways to Present
For special occasions or big gatherings, cut the pizza into smaller, bite-sized squares and layer them onto a serving platter. You can even create a DIY “pizza bar”—offer extra toppings like avocado, salsa, or hot sauce so everyone can dress up their own slice.
Make Ahead and Storage
Storing Leftovers
Leftover Sheet Pan Breakfast Pizza stores beautifully! Simply let the slices cool completely, then wrap them tightly or seal in an airtight container. They’ll stay tasty in the refrigerator for up to 3 days—perfect for easy grab-and-go breakfasts.
Freezing
To freeze, layer cooled pizza squares between pieces of parchment paper and place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. Freeze for up to one month. This makes breakfast meal prep a breeze—just pull out what you need!
Reheating
For best results, reheat slices in a 350°F oven (or toaster oven) for about 8–10 minutes to restore crispness and melt that cheese anew. In a pinch, a quick zap in the microwave will work, though you may sacrifice some crust texture.
FAQs
-
Can I make Sheet Pan Breakfast Pizza ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can fully assemble and bake the pizza ahead of time, then refrigerate. Simply reheat in the oven before serving. For freshest texture, it’s best enjoyed the same day, but leftovers are still delicious for up to 3 days.
-
What’s the best way to keep the crust from getting soggy?
The secret is to pre-bake the pizza dough for several minutes before adding any toppings. This helps seal the surface and creates a sturdy base that holds up to the eggs and cheese without getting soggy.
-
Can I use other meats besides bacon?
Definitely! Try breakfast sausage, diced ham, or even cooked chorizo for different flavor profiles. Just make sure any meat is cooked and drained before adding to the pizza to avoid excess moisture.
-
Is it possible to make this recipe gluten-free or vegetarian?
Yes, you can use gluten-free pizza dough for a gluten-free version, and go meatless by substituting the bacon with extra veggies, sautéed mushrooms, or a plant-based breakfast sausage.
