The base of this breakfast pizza is a tube of refrigerator crescent rolls. After you pinch the crescent rolls together in the shape of a round pizza, you need to pre-bake them before adding the toppings.
I added my family's favorite breakfast toppings of green peppers, cheese and crumbled bacon. You can add what your family prefers or even divide the pizza into two sections with completely different toppings.

Dipping Sauce for Breakfast Pizza
Here are a few of my favorite dipping sauces for pizza that would work great for breakfast pizza as well:
- Chick-fil-A dipping sauce.
- Homemade Pizza Dipping Sauce - both a homemade ranch and a homemade Fry Sauce.
- Dipping Sauce for Chicken Cutlet - which I think would work great as well for pizza.
- Another favorite is Garlic dipping sauce that's also great for dipping the pizza crust in.

Recipe Variations

- Puff pastry would work also as the crust.
- If you wanted, you could spread a thin layer of sausage and gravy on top of the crescent roll before adding the eggs and topping. Try my Breakfast Pizza Rolls!
- Replace the cooked bacon with browned ground sausage.
- Add more vegetables such as chopped red peppers, onions, even broccoli would be great.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Unroll the crescent rolls and separate the triangles. Arrange them on a round pizza pan sprayed with non-stick baking spray, overlapping the wide ends slightly to form a circle. Gently press the seams together to create a single, unified crust.
Step 2: Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in a preheated 350°F oven, keeping a watchful eye for a beautiful golden brown color. Once perfect, remove the pan from the oven and set it aside to cool slightly while you prepare the delicious toppings!
Step 3: In a heavy skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Sauté the green peppers until tender, then remove them from the skillet and set aside. Whisk the eggs in a bowl, then melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet. Pour in the eggs, season with salt and pepper, and cook until almost set.
Step 4: Gently spoon the cooked eggs over the baked crescent roll crust. Mix the cheeses together, then sprinkle this delicious blend evenly over the eggs.
Quick Tip
Undercook the scrambled eggs a few minutes. They will finish cooking on top of the crescent rolls in the oven.
Step 5: Top with the sautéed green peppers. Then add the crumbled cooked bacon.
Step 6: Return the pizza to the oven for 5-7 minutes more, until the cheese melts and bubbles. Slice and serve right away.

Should bacon be cooked before putting it on pizza?
Yes, the bacon should be cooked before adding it to the top of the breakfast pizza. Adding uncooked bacon to the top of a pizza will make the pizza greasy while the bacon cooks. You also risk the bacon not cooking all the way through and not getting crispy enough.
Make it a Meal
Serve this recipe as part of a brunch of Mother's Day or Easter with a fruit salad on the side.
You could also serve my puff pastry cream cheese danish recipe or maybe a breakfast parfait. Serve with homemade peach iced tea for a refreshing drink.
Storage Tips
