Breakfast Pizza Recipe

Gluten-free pizza crust: The base of our breakfast pizza, ensuring it's suitable for those with gluten sensitivities.

Eggs: Provides a rich, creamy texture and essential protein.

Mozzarella cheese: Adds a melty, cheesy goodness to the pizza.

Bell peppers: Adds a sweet crunch and vibrant color.

Onions: Offers a mild, savory flavor that complements the other ingredients.

Tomatoes: Adds a juicy, fresh element to the pizza.

Salt and pepper: Essential seasonings to enhance the overall flavor.

When whisking the eggs, make sure to incorporate a bit of air to achieve a fluffier texture. Use a fork or a whisk and beat the eggs vigorously for about 1-2 minutes. This will help the eggs set more evenly on the gluten-free pizza crust and create a light, airy base for your breakfast pizza.
