Variations Ideas
- Change Meat – We used breakfast sausage in this recipe. But you can mix in hot sausage or substitute with chopped cooked bacon.
- Veggies – Add your favorite vegetables to the top of the pizza. I like to use up any I have leftover from the week. Spinach and slice mushrooms are the perfect addition.
- Cheese – Feel free to use any type of cheese. You can change to mozzarella cheese or add in shredded pepper jack for a hint of spice.
- Pizza Crust – Crescent rolls make the best crust, but you can use a regular pizza crust if you prefer.
Step by Step Instructions
- Step 1 – Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease a baking sheet or pizza pan.
Step 2 – In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the breakfast sausage and vegetables until the sausage is browned and fully cooked, and the vegetables are tender.
Step 3 – While the sausage and veggies are cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl and scramble them with a fork or whisk. Season them with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Step 4 – Unroll the Pillsbury crescent roll dough onto a greased baking sheet or pizza pan. Press the seams together to form a single, large dough circle or rectangle. Make sure the dough is evenly spread and covers the pan.
Step 5 – Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese evenly over the crescent roll dough.
Step 6 – Once the sausage and veggies are cooked, spread it evenly over the cheese layer.
Step 7 – Pour the scrambled eggs over the sausage layer.
Step 8 – If you’re using diced tomatoes, sprinkle them over the eggs.
Step 9 – Top everything with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese.
- Step 10 – Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes to 20 minutes or until the crescent roll crust is golden brown, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Step 11 – Remove the breakfast pizza from the oven, let it cool slightly, and then slice it into wedges or squares. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
Recipe Tips
- Sausage – Make sure to cook the breakfast sausage thoroughly unJl it’s browned and no longer pink. You can drain any excess grease if necessary to reduce the fat content.
- Handling Crescent Roll Dough – When working with crescent roll dough, press the seams together well to create a seamless base for your pizza. This will prevent any gaps where the egg mixture might leak through during baking.
- Cooking Time – Cooking time will vary depending on your oven. The crescent roll dough will be golden brown and the egg and cheese center should be set.
Serving Suggestions
When serving this breakfast pizza we love to top with chopped green onions and parmesan cheese. Add a side of fruit salad or Crispy Air Fryer hash browns for a complete meal idea.
Another family favorite option is to drizzle Homemade Sausage Gravy over the top.
