  • Author: Amelia
  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

For the Base:

  • 6 English muffins, split in half (12 halves)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter

For the Toppings:

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices beef bacon or turkey bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers (red, green, or yellow)
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Optional Add-Ons:

  • Sliced avocado
  • Sautéed spinach
  • Hot sauce or salsa
  • Fresh herbs like parsley or basil

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the English Muffins

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Arrange the split English muffins cut-side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. Brush each muffin half with olive oil or melted butter to create a crispy base.

Step 2: Cook the Eggs

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and scramble the egg mixture until just set. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 3: Assemble the Pizzas

  1. Sprinkle a layer of mozzarella and cheddar cheese over each English muffin half.
  2. Divide the scrambled eggs evenly among the muffins, spreading them out to cover the surface.
  3. Add toppings such as crumbled bacon, diced bell peppers, and green onions. Sprinkle with additional cheese if desired.

Step 4: Bake the Pizzas

  1. Bake the assembled English muffin pizzas in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  2. For extra crispiness, broil the pizzas for 1–2 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve

  1. Remove the pizzas from the oven and let them cool slightly.
  2. Garnish with optional add-ons like avocado slices, fresh herbs, or a drizzle of hot sauce. Serve warm and enjoy!
