English Muffin Breakfast Pizza is a fun recipe that is perfect for a breakfast, brunch or any meal. English muffins are topped with eggs, Canadian bacon, green pepper, onion, cheeses, and Italian seasoning.
Not only is this recipe a fun recipe to make, it is also delicious. It is a recipe the whole family will enjoy.
This recipe is easy to change up. Instead of Canadian bacon try pork sausage, or pepperoni, or try different cheeses. The choices are unlimited. It is great for breakfast or brunch, but you can enjoy it for any meal of the day.
Helpful Tips:
- Divide the English muffins evenly, so you have a sturdy base for each pizza.
- Toasting the muffins before adding the eggs will crisp them up and keep the muffins from getting soggy.
- Watch the English muffins closely while toasting them, you will not want them to get too brown.
- The green pepper and onion should be chopped fine. This will help with cooking time.
- The Italian seasoning is a great addition to the pizza, I would suggest that you add to the pizzas.
- The pizza are best when they are freshly made.
- I have not tried freezing these pizza, but if would like to freeze them I would freeze them after assembling them and before putting them under the broiler.
Steps for making English Muffin Breakfast Pizza
Step one
Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
Step two
Split each English muffin into two. Melt butter and brush the cut side of each muffin. Toast the muffins in the preheated oven while preparing the vegetables and eggs, about 10 to 12 minutes.
Step three
Add a teaspoon of butter, green pepper, and onion to a large skillet. Cook over medium heat until the vegetables are getting tender.
Step four
While the vegetables are cooking, add the eggs to a bowl or a measuring cup and beat to scramble them. Add the Canadian bacon that has been cut into small pieces and mix in. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step five
Add the egg mixture to the skillet with the vegetables and cook, stirring occasionally until the eggs are set.
Step six
Remove the muffins from the oven. Top with the cooked eggs, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
Step seven
Turn the broiler on for the oven. Place the pizzas in the oven and broil until the cheese is melted.
