Grain-Free Paleo Breakfast Pizza

Pizza for breakfast? We are obviously on board. If you’ve never had over-easy eggs on your pizza, you’re missing out. This baby combines classic pizza toppings with a few breakfast-y favourites to make an ideal filling breakfast or weekend brunch treat. Don’t forget the hot sauce!

Ingredients

• 1 bag of Stellar Eats Pizza Dough mix
• 3/4 cup of your favourite tomato sauce
• 1/3 cup pesto (store-bought or homemade)
• Sautéed mushrooms
• Roasted butternut squash or sweet potato cubes, if desired
• 3-4 organic eggs
• Cheese of choice
• Hot sauce and parsley to top, if desired

Method

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment.

Prepare your Stellar Eats Pizza Dough according to the package instructions. Shape the dough into a large rounded rectangle, about 1/2 inch thick, on your baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven.

Top your crust with tomato sauce, dollops of pesto, sautéed mushrooms (or other veggies of choice) and squash or potato cubes. Sprinkle with cheese of choice. Carefully crack your eggs, evenly spaced out, on top of the pizza (3 or 4 depending how many you can fit). 

Bake for 12 minutes or until the eggs are set on top. Let cool for 5-10 minutes, top with hot sauce, then slice and serve!
