This hearty, savory breakfast pizza combines the best of breakfast into one mouthwatering dish. The perfect blend of golden hash browns, savory sausage, and gooey cheese on top of a crispy pizza crust. The best breakfast for lazy weekends, brunches, or family holidays!
Combining the crispiness of hash browns with the classic appeal of pizza was a no-brainer when creating this recipe. Some breakfast pizza recipes omit the hash browns and I think that’s a rookie mistake! Not only do they taste great, but they go perfectly with the eggs, sausage, and cheese. There’s something special about a recipe thats both comforting and indulgent, just like these cinnamon roll muffins.

What to serve with breakfast pizza
When serving a savory gluten free breakfast pizza, I like to pair it with fluffy pancakes drizzled with maple syrup to cater to my everlasting sweet tooth. Delicate crepes or crispy french toast bites are two more classic recipes that my family and I can’t seem to get enough of! It’s also always a good idea to serve fruit as a side to a hearty breakfast.
What you need to make an easy breakfast pizza
- Crust: Any premade pizza crust with do. I like to use Udi’s gluten free crust because I have celiac, but you can use whatever pizza crust you like.
- Eggs
- Hashbrowns: Frozen hashbrowns work great.
- Cheese: Shredded cheddar cheese or a cheese blend is my go-to.
- Meat: Sausage is my favorite because it’s easy to spread on the pizza.
- Toppings: Like regular pizza, you can get creative with your toppings.
What if I don’t have sausage?
If you don’t have sausage or would like to use another type of meat, you can use bacon, ham, or a vegetarian substitute. Feel free to omit meat all together and add veggies or keep it cheesy.
How to make a breakfast pizza
Prep: Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Brown Sausage: On a griddle or medium pan, cook the sausage until browned and crumbled. Set aside, making sure to keep the grease on the pan.
Fry Hashbrowns: In the sausage grease (or butter/coconut oil), fry the hashbrowns until golden brown and crispy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cook Eggs: Cook your eggs to your preference. Scrambled or over easy works well.
Assemble Pizza: Layer the hashbrowns, sausage, and eggs on the pre-made pizza crust. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar.
Bake: Bake at 425°F for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve: Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to slice into six pieces and serve with fresh salsa and sour cream.
Can I add vegetables?
Yes, you can add vegetables to this breakfast pizza recipe. Bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, or spinach make great additions to this breakfast pizza. Adding veggies is a great way to add more color and flavor.
Storing and make ahead
How to store: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. The pizza crust may get soggy so I recommend reheating in the air fryer or oven.
Can I make breakfast pizza ahead of time? You can prep all of the ingredients ahead of time, store in the fridge, assemble the pizza and pop in the oven before you’re ready to eat. This is a great way to get breakfast on the table in no time.
What to do with leftover sausage?
Whenever I make this breakfast recipe, I always find that I have leftover sausage that wouldn’t fit on the pizza. If I’m not going to use it right away, I’ll place it in a ziplock baggie and freeze it.
But, if I want to use it right away, it’s perfect for this nostalgic school breakfast pizza recipe or this cheesy breakfast casserole.
