Ingredients
Scale
Base
- 4 English muffins, split in half
Egg Mixture
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 cup milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
Toppings
- 1/2 cup cooked breakfast sausage or crumbled bacon
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup diced bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onion
- Optional hot sauce for serving
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and arrange the split English muffins on a baking sheet, cut side up, to prepare for topping.
- Prepare Scrambled Eggs: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are soft scrambled but not dry. Remove from heat.
- Assemble Pizzas: Spoon the soft scrambled eggs evenly over each English muffin half. Layer with cooked sausage or bacon, followed by a generous sprinkle of cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.
- Add Vegetables: Top each muffin with diced bell pepper and chopped green onions for added freshness and flavor.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the muffins are slightly toasted.
- Serve: Serve your English Muffin Breakfast Pizzas warm, optionally drizzling with hot sauce for an extra kick if desired.
Notes
- Make these ahead and store in the refrigerator for a quick reheat on busy mornings.
- Swap sausage for plant-based meat or omit it to make a vegetarian-friendly version.
- Use whole wheat English muffins to increase fiber content and nutritional value.
