Breakfast Pizza
Like many toddlers, pizza is one of Jack’s favorite foods, so I developed a breakfast version that he absolutely loves - and it even includes spinach!
For the egg mixture, I par-cook the egg and spinach in a pan that is slightly smaller than the pizza crust, transfer it to the crust, top with a little bit of cheese to set the egg to the crust and finish it in the oven.
I like to use a personal size pizza crust for this as it’s easier to transfer the egg to the crust, but you can use whatever pre-baked pizza crust you like.
If you have leftovers, you can store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days and reheat in the oven.
Ingredients
1 whole wheat/sprouted grain personal size pre-baked pizza crust (I use Flatzza Buddy Crusts by Angelic Bakehouse)
Olive oil
2 large eggs
5 fresh spinach leaves, finely chopped
Pinch of salt and pepper
Shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees (or set to the temperature as stated with your pizza crust)
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, pepper and chopped spinach
3. Heat a light coating of olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat, making sure the pan is slightly smaller than the size of your crust
4. Add egg mixture and let cook until it is about 75% finished (do not scramble or break up the egg! I use a rubber spatula occasionally to slide under the egg to make sure the edges aren’t sticking to the pan)
5. Add a sprinkle of cheese to the pizza crust and then using a spatula, carefully transfer the egg to the crust
6. Top with a little bit more shredded cheese and finish in the oven until egg is cooked and cheese is melted (note depending on your crust, you may need to pre-bake it before adding the egg as it only takes about 5-7 minutes for the egg and cheese to cook)
7. Cut and serve
