Ingredients

Scale

Pizza Dough

  • 1 ½–2 cups all purpose flour 195g (plus more for rolling)
  • 1 package instant or quick yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ⅔ cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons oil

Toppings and Filling

  • 3 slices thick cut bacon
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 green onion (sliced, about 1 tablespoon)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Pizza Dough: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, instant yeast, salt, sugar, dried oregano, and garlic powder. Stir well to mix the dry ingredients evenly.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in warm water and 2 tablespoons oil, stirring until just combined. The dough will be very wet at this point.
  3. Knead the Dough: Gradually add the remaining flour while kneading briefly until the dough is soft yet not sticky and no longer adheres to your hands. The dough should feel soft but not firm.
  4. Let Dough Rise: Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it, and set it in a warm, draft-free area to rise until doubled in size, approximately 40 minutes.
  5. Preheat Oven and Prepare Bacon: Heat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil, place bacon strips on it, and bake for 12-15 minutes until crispy. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels before chopping.
  6. Make Scrambled Eggs: Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Heat oil in a medium skillet, pour in egg mixture, and cook while stirring frequently until scrambled and cooked through. Set aside.
  7. Roll Out Dough: Roll the risen dough slightly larger than your pizza pan (about 12 inches). Transfer to a lightly greased pizza pan, fold and pinch the edges to fit the pan with a slightly raised crust edge.
  8. Brush Crust: Combine oil, garlic powder, and dried parsley; brush this mixture evenly over the pizza crust.
  9. Add Toppings and Bake: Evenly spread scrambled eggs, chopped bacon, and shredded mozzarella cheese over the crust. Bake at 425°F for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and the crust is light golden brown.
  10. Finish and Serve: Sprinkle sliced green onions on top and serve your delicious breakfast pizza warm.

Notes

  • Use warm water (not hot) for activating yeast effectively.
  • Adjust flour quantity as needed to get the right dough texture; dough should be soft but manageable.
  • Bacon can be substituted with sausage or turkey bacon for variation.
  • For a crispier crust, prebake the dough for 5-7 minutes before adding toppings.
  • Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing to allow cheese to set slightly.
