Ingredients
Scale
- 6 English muffin halves (whole wheat or regular)
- 6 large eggs, scrambled
- 1½ cups shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or Mexican blend)
- 2 tablespoons butter for scrambling eggs
- ¼ cup milk for creamy scrambled eggs
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 4 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled (optional)
- ½ cup breakfast sausage, cooked and crumbled (optional)
- ¼ cup diced ham (optional)
- 2 green onions, finely chopped (optional)
- ¼ cup diced bell peppers (optional)
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped (optional)
- ¼ cup cherry tomatoes, halved (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Workspace: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toast English Muffins: Split muffins in half, arrange cut-side up on baking sheet. Toast for 3-4 minutes until lightly golden.
- Scramble Eggs: Heat butter in large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Whisk eggs with milk, salt, and pepper. Cook slowly, stirring frequently, until just set but still creamy.
- Assemble Pizzas: Divide scrambled eggs evenly among toasted muffin halves. Sprinkle cheese generously over eggs.
- Add Toppings: Add your chosen breakfast meats, vegetables, and herbs as desired.
- Final Baking: Bake for 8-10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly, and muffin edges are golden brown. Let cool 2-3 minutes before serving.
Notes
For meal prep: Assemble pizzas completely, cover and refrigerate up to 2 days before baking. Add 2-3 extra minutes to baking time. Can freeze assembled pizzas for up to 1 month. Secret tip: Slightly undercook eggs during stovetop preparation since they’ll finish cooking in the oven.
