Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Resting 5 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes
Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb refrigerated pizza dough
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 10 eggs, divided
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup cooked crumbled pork breakfast sausage
  • 1/2 cup diced bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella-cheddar blend
  • Hot sauce, optional

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F with pizza stone or baking sheet inside.
  2. Roll 1 pound store-bought or homemade pizza dough into a 12-inch circle on parchment.
  3. Brush dough with 1 tablespoon oil; sprinkle with ½ teaspoon garlic powder.
  4. Transfer dough on parchment to hot stone; pre-bake 5 minutes and remove.
  5. Whisk 6 eggs with softened cream cheese; small cheese flecks are fine. Scramble in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until softly set.
  6. Spread scrambled eggs evenly over crust, leaving a ½-inch border.
  7. Top with 1 cup cooked, crumbled breakfast sausage, ½ cup diced bell peppers, ½ cup diced onions, and 1½ cups shredded mozzarella and cheddar.
  8. Make 4 small wells in toppings; crack a whole egg into each.
  9. Bake for 12-18 minutes until crust is baked and egg whites and yolks are firm; the meat-and-egg topping must reach 165°F. Loosely shield the crust with foil if it browns first.
  10. Cool 3-4 minutes; slice and serve with hot sauce alongside.
