Ingredients

Scale

English Muffin Base

  • 1 package English Muffins (usually 6 muffins, split in half)

Sausage & Egg Topping

  • 1/2 pound breakfast sausage
  • 8 eggs
  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Cheese

  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite), or more for extra cheesiness

Instructions

  1. Prepare the English Muffins: Split the English muffins in half and toast them lightly until golden brown. This provides a sturdy and crispy base for the toppings.
  2. Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, crumble and cook the breakfast sausage until fully browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat and set the sausage aside.
  3. Make the Scrambled Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the 8 eggs with melted butter, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture into the same skillet over medium-low heat, gently stirring to make soft scrambled eggs. Remove from heat once cooked but still moist.
  4. Assemble the Breakfast Pizzas: Spread a portion of cooked sausage onto each toasted English muffin half. Add a layer of scrambled eggs on top of the sausage. Then, sprinkle cheese evenly over each muffin half.
  5. Melt the Cheese: Place the assembled English muffin pizzas on a baking sheet and put them under a broiler or in a preheated oven set to high (around 425°F / 220°C) for 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Watch closely to avoid burning.
  6. Serve: Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm for a satisfying breakfast pizza experience.

Notes

  • You can substitute breakfast sausage with cooked bacon or ham if preferred.
  • Feel free to add veggies like diced bell peppers or onions to the scrambled eggs for extra flavor and nutrition.
  • Using different cheese varieties such as Monterey Jack, pepper jack, or a blend can customize the taste.
  • To make it healthier, use turkey sausage and reduced-fat cheese.
  • Leftover assembled pizzas can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven or toaster oven for a quick breakfast later.
