Deep Dish Breakfast Pizza
For the recipe, I used an eight-inch deep cast-iron skillet. The pizza takes about twenty minutes to prepare. Five of those minutes are just for prep time. I added diced cooked ham, pepperoni slices, shredded cheddar cheese to this yummy deep dish breakfast pizza. Of course, if you prefer, you can add additional toppings onto yours.
Ingredients:
10 large eggs
¼ cup of diced cooked ham
20 pepperoni slices
½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon of onion powder
½ teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon of water
2 tablespoons of canola oil for the skillet
Instructions:
First, crack the eggs in a bowl and whisk them for a couple of minutes. Then add one tablespoon of water and whisk again.
Add the oil to an eight-inch deep skillet; allow the oil to get hot over medium heat. Add the whisked eggs to the skillet and cook for about five minutes. Using a spatula, go around the outside edges and underneath the egg slowly. (This helps prevent it from sticking.) Sprinkle the onion powder over the top of the egg layer evenly.
Dice the ham into small chunk-sized pieces and sprinkle them on top of the crusted egg layer.
Next, place the pepperoni slices on top along with the shredded cheese.
Transfer the skillet to a 350 degrees F oven; finish cooking under the broiler on the top oven rack. The deep dish breakfast pizza should be done in about ten minutes. (Make sure that all the egg is cooked through and that the edges and bottom of the pizza are golden brown.)
Serve and enjoy!
Note:
Use a skillet that doesn't have a plastic coated handle. I used a cast-iron skillet.
Leave the skillet on the burner while you're adding the rest of the ingredients onto your pizza. Doing so browns the outside edges of the egg crust. If needed, turn the burner on low.
