Description

A delicious and easy-to-make English Muffin Breakfast Pizza featuring fluffy scrambled eggs, melted cheddar cheese, savory sausage or bacon, and colorful bell peppers atop toasted English muffin halves—a perfect breakfast treat for the whole family.


Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 4 English muffins, split in half

Egg Mixture

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Toppings

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup cooked breakfast sausage, crumbled or cooked bacon, chopped
  • 1/4 cup diced bell pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and arrange the split English muffins on a baking sheet, cut side facing up to prepare for topping and baking.
  2. Prepare Egg Mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and smooth, ensuring even seasoning.
  3. Cook Scrambled Eggs: Heat the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook by stirring gently until the eggs are softly set but still moist, then remove from heat to avoid overcooking.
  4. Assemble Muffins: Spoon an even portion of the scrambled eggs onto each English muffin half, then evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese, followed by the cooked sausage or bacon, and diced bell peppers on top.
  5. Bake: Place the assembled muffins into the preheated oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden at the edges.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped green onions if using. Serve warm for a satisfying breakfast.

Notes

  • Prepare the scrambled eggs and toppings ahead of time for quicker morning assembly.
  • Try adding salsa, hot sauce, or avocado slices to customize the flavor.
  • You can substitute the breakfast sausage with bacon or even a vegetarian protein alternative.
  • For a lower-fat option, use reduced-fat cheese and turkey bacon.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; reheat before serving.
