Ingredients

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

• 1 sheet puff pastry (store-bought or homemade)
• 2-3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
• 1/4 cup cooked bacon, sausage, or ham (optional for added protein)
• 1/4 cup fresh vegetables (like spinach, bell peppers, or onions, diced)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh herbs (like parsley or chives) for garnish (optional)
• Optional toppings: sliced tomatoes, avocado, or hot sauce

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use a fork to lightly prick the surface of the pastry to prevent it from puffing up too much while baking.
3. Bake the puff pastry for 10–12 minutes, or until it’s golden and crispy around the edges.
4. While the pastry is baking, heat a small pan over medium heat and cook any additional toppings like bacon, sausage, or vegetables until they’re cooked through. Set aside.
5. Once the puff pastry is baked, remove it from the oven and carefully crack the eggs onto the center of the pastry. Use a spoon to make small wells for the eggs if necessary.
6. Sprinkle the shredded cheese, cooked bacon or sausage, and vegetables around the eggs.
7. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10–12 minutes, or until the eggs are set to your liking (runny yolks will need less time).
8. Once done, remove from the oven and season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives, and add any optional toppings such as avocado or a drizzle of hot sauce.
9. Slice and serve warm!

Servings and timing

• Serves 2-4 people (depending on portion size)
• Prep time: 10 minutes
• Bake time: 20-25 minutes

Variations

• Vegetarian option: Skip the meat and load up with extra vegetables like mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes, or zucchini.
• Cheese variations: Try different cheeses such as goat cheese, feta, or Parmesan for different flavor profiles.
• Spicy version: Add some red pepper flakes or hot sauce to the eggs or toppings for a spicy kick.
• Sweet twist: For a sweet version, top the puff pastry with mascarpone or cream cheese, fresh berries, and a drizzle of honey.

Storage/reheating

• Store leftover puff pastry breakfast pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes until warmed through. You can also microwave it, but the puff pastry won’t be as crispy.
• This dish is best served fresh, as the puff pastry can lose its crispness when stored.

FAQs

Can I make this ahead of time?

You can prepare the puff pastry base and toppings ahead of time and store them separately in the fridge. When you’re ready to serve, assemble and bake the pizza for a quick breakfast.

Can I use a different type of dough instead of puff pastry?

Yes, you can use pre-made pizza dough, biscuit dough, or croissant dough for a different twist. Puff pastry, however, provides the flakiest, crispiest texture.

Can I make individual portions?

Absolutely! You can cut the puff pastry into smaller squares or circles and make individual breakfast pizzas. Just adjust the egg quantity for each serving.

Can I use a different type of cheese?

Yes! You can use any cheese you like—mozzarella, feta, cheddar, or gouda are all great options depending on your flavor preferences.

Can I use frozen puff pastry?

Yes, frozen puff pastry works perfectly for this recipe. Just be sure to thaw it according to package instructions before using it.

Can I add more protein to the pizza?

Yes, you can add more protein like turkey bacon, sausage, or even a sprinkle of crumbled tofu for a vegetarian protein option.

How do I keep the eggs from overcooking?

If you prefer runny yolks, be sure to check on the pizza at around 8-10 minutes of baking time. You can remove the pizza from the oven once the eggs are set to your liking.

Conclusion

Puff Pastry Breakfast Pizza is a delicious, quick, and creative way to enjoy breakfast. With its flaky, buttery crust and endless topping possibilities, it’s perfect for a leisurely weekend brunch, busy weekday mornings, or any meal in between.

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and optional garlic powder and dried herbs.

1. Add the chopped spinach (or spinach puree) into the dry ingredients. If using a spinach puree, blend the spinach with a little water or milk until smooth and add it to the batter.
2. Pour in the milk and olive oil (or melted butter), and mix until everything is combined into a smooth batter. If the batter seems too thick, add a little more milk to reach your desired consistency.
3. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with a small amount of oil or cooking spray.
4. Pour 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2–3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
5. Serve the pancakes hot with your favorite toppings, such as fresh yogurt, salsa, avocado, or a drizzle of olive oil.

Notes

1. For a vegan version, replace the milk with plant-based milk and use coconut oil instead of butter.
2. Add chopped vegetables like mushrooms, bell peppers, or grated carrots for extra texture.
3. Use any herbs or spices of your choice for customization.
4. Make the pancakes in advance and store them in the fridge or freeze them for later use.
