Breakfast Pizza
~ Mary ~
Yes, those are eggs on that pizza. You can have it for breakfast, but we ate ours for dinner. I’ve never had a melt in your mouth pizza before, but the mascarpone and the Fontina cheese make this a melt worthy pizza of unforgettable proportions.
Here’s a photo of the updated version that recipe is down below the original, just keep scrolling down.

As I’ve said before, Sunday night is pizza night and JP has gotten us rockin’ the oven instead of ordering out. Thanks JP!
So if you think this one looks scrumptious check out these: Garlic Glazed Chicken, Mexican Steak, Thai Peanut, Fig & Proscuitto, Savory Strawberry, BBQ Chicken
Breakfast Pizza
Par Baked 14″ Crust cooled
1/4 Cup Mascarpone Cheese – this melts like butter!
4-5 Cloves Minced Garlic
1-2 Tbsp Minced Sage
1 Cup Shredded Fontina Cheese
4 Eggs – break yolk if you don’t like ’em runny
1/4 Cup Thinly sliced Red Onion
1/2 -1 Cup Pre-cooked Breakfast Meat we used spicy chicken sausage, but bacon or breakfast sausage would be nice too.
1/2 Cup Blanched Asparagus
Bake at 475°
until eggs are cooked about 15-20 minutes then top with:
Handful Shredded Parmesan
*UPDATE*
This is such a rich pizza, so I lightened it up by:
Taking 2 Bunches of Asparagus, chopping them up, steaming, salt & pepper then making a puree. I skipped the mascarpone. I added more sage and red onion after it finished baking and it really made the pizza “pop”.
Here’s the order:
Par-baked crust – don’t let it get brown or your edges will burn in the second baking.
1/2 Cup Asparagus Puree
1 Cup Fontina
Breakfast Meat
Sliced Red Onions
Fresh Sage
4 Eggs
Bake 15-20 minutes more.
Top with fresh grated Parmesan and more fresh sage and red onions.
This sounds and looks wonderful!
Mmmm… how i would love to have this pizza for breakfast. It looks to die for daaaahling!
*kisses* HH
I have made breakfast pizza before it was wonderful! This looks beautiful and I love the addition of Asparagus and Mascarapone Cheese….Well done!
Now I’ve seen it all! Pizza for breakfast! AWESOME! Will try this for my next brunch!
A fabulous pizza for breakfast! Sounds terrific with the addition of asparagus and mascarpone!
I love egg on pizza but have never tried doing it myself because I wasn’t sure at what point to add the egg (not wanting to overcook or undercook obviously). Your suggestion of using pre-baked crust helps solve that as you just bake until the eggs are done – perfect!
Beautiful! I also made a breakfast pizza last week but yours looks WAY yummier than mine.
This breakfast pizza looks delish!
You should have joined the Pizza Incident Party!! This would have been a delicious thing to bring!
This would definitely be a dinner for me. I would go back to sleep if I ate it for breakfast! 😉
Yum, your photo make me want a slice. Oh, and you’ve inspired to try some mascarpone-a run to the Italian market is on my chores list now…
This is not Huntington West Virgina Public Elementary School breakfast pizza (see Jamie Oliver’s show). This looks awesome!
Love pizza for breakfast. I made one two weeks ago but my oven is not good enough to have that good looking crust like yours.
scrumptious! this looks absolutely delicious.
Oh, this looks so delicious. I’m definitely making this. Thanks for sharing.
Oh man this looks delicious!
I bet it is wonderful without the eggs too!
Great idea! This looks like the perfect dish to feed my son the next time he visits!
wow, this looks fantastic – pizza and breakfast foods are good all the time, yum!
mmmm, yummy
Made this a couple of weeks ago for my Sunday morning brunch crowd (with a couple of variations). Everyone wants a ‘repeat performance”. Used smoked kielbassa for meat.
Sounds deeeeeeelish!
