# What You Need:
→ Base
01 -
4 English muffins, split in half
→ Sauce and Cheese
02 -
1/2 cup pizza sauce
03 -
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
→ Toppings
04 -
1/2 cup cooked crumbled sausage or chopped cooked bacon
05 -
1/4 cup diced bell peppers
06 -
2 tablespoons sliced black olives
→ Eggs and Seasoning
07 -
8 large eggs
08 -
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
09 -
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
10 -
Salt and black pepper, to taste
# How to Make It:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 -
Place English muffin halves cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Toast lightly if extra crispiness is desired.
03 -
Spread a small amount of pizza sauce on each muffin half. Top with shredded mozzarella, cooked sausage or bacon, diced bell peppers, and black olives.
04 -
Bake in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly with golden edges.
05 -
While pizzas bake, cook eggs in a non-stick skillet to your preference (sunny-side up, scrambled, or over-easy).
06 -
Place one cooked egg on each baked muffin pizza. Season with oregano, basil, salt, and pepper before serving.
# Important Notes:
01 -
Avoid excess sauce to maintain a crisp texture and prevent sogginess.
02 -
Always pre-cook meat toppings, as the baking time is insufficient to cook raw meat safely.
03 -
Start cooking eggs as muffins go into the oven to ensure everything finishes together.
04 -
Use a kitchen timer to avoid overcooking and coordinate timing precisely.
05 -
Season after cooking for the best flavor impact from herbs and spices.
