Ingredient Notes
- Cheese Crust: Mozzarella melts smoothly and crisps beautifully — perfect for the base.
- Bacon: Adds smoky crunch; you can also use sausage or ham.
- Eggs: Scramble lightly so they stay fluffy when baked.
- Vegetables: Optional but great for color and nutrition.
Instructions
- Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper. - Make the Cheese Crust:
Mix mozzarella, cheddar, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning in a bowl.
Spread the cheese mixture evenly on the parchment paper in a circle or rectangle shape (about ¼ inch thick).
Bake for 8–10 minutes until the edges are golden and crispy. - Prepare the Eggs:
While the crust bakes, scramble the eggs in a skillet over medium heat until just set (slightly soft — they’ll finish in the oven). - Assemble the Pizza:
Remove crust from the oven. Spread the scrambled eggs evenly on top, then sprinkle with bacon, cheddar, bell peppers, and green onions. - Bake Again:
Return to the oven for 5–7 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly. - Slice and Serve:
Let cool slightly, then slice and serve warm. Perfect for keto breakfasts or meal prep!
