Ingredients
Instructions
- Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it over the bottom and sides of a 12-inch pizza pan to form the crust.

- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, a pinch of salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture carefully over the layered ingredients on the pizza.
- Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes until the eggs are set and the crust is golden.
Tips & Substitutions
For a twist, consider using turkey sausage or adding veggies like bell peppers or spinach to the toppings. If you prefer a lighter option, substitute half of the cheese with cottage cheese for added protein. Ensure the hash browns are well-thawed for even cooking. This breakfast pizza is perfect for using up leftover ingredients from other dishes, making it versatile and fun.
Serving Suggestions
Serve your breakfast pizza warm, garnished with fresh herbs like chives or parsley for added flavor. It pairs beautifully with a side of fresh fruit or a light salad. For a complete breakfast, consider serving it alongside yogurt or smoothies. This dish is perfect for brunch gatherings as well.
