Ingredients
Scale
For the Breakfast Pizzas:
- 4 small naan or flatbreads
- 1/2 pound breakfast sausage, crumbled
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- Chopped fresh chives or parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cook the sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into crumbles. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Prepare the flatbreads: Place the naan or flatbreads on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each with a bit of olive oil, then sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
- Add toppings: Evenly distribute the cooked sausage over the cheese. Using the back of a spoon, create a slight well in the center of each flatbread and carefully crack an egg into each one.
- Season and bake: Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your preference.
- Garnish and serve: Garnish with fresh chives or parsley and serve warm.
Notes
- To avoid eggs sliding off the flatbread, press the center down slightly before adding toppings.
- For a runnier yolk, bake closer to 10 minutes; for a firmer yolk, go closer to 12.
- You can substitute sausage with cooked bacon or plant-based sausage alternatives.
