A very well-rounded breakfast! Pun fully intended!
My usual go to breakfast order is a western omelette because it has all the elements of the perfect breakfast - fresh veggies, savory ham, and gooey cheese. This dish has all of those yummy ingredients all piled onto a pizza! This pizza is a crowd pleaser every time!
Western Omelette Breakfast Pizza
Prep Time: 1.5-2 hours
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: About 3 hours
Yield: 1 14-16 inch pizza
Ingredients
3/4 cup warm water
1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) instant yeast
1 tsp honey
2 cups AP flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 Tbs salted butter
1 1/2 Tbs AP flour
3/4 cup milk
1 Tbs Dijon mustard
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 cup Colby cheese, shredded
1/2 cup green pepper, diced
1/2 cup red pepper, diced
1/4 cup green onion, diced
1 cup ham, diced
2-4 large eggs
Directions
In a mixer with the dough hook attachment, combine water, yeast, honey, flour, and salt. Knead with the hook until smooth and pulling away from the sides of the bowl.
Spray the dough ball with coil and cover with a towel/plastic wrap for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size. (The dough can also be made the night before. Make the dough as described and then place in the fridge overnight. Pull it out 2-3 hours before baking the next morning.)
Dice the peppers and green onions. Separate the green onion tops from the white bottoms. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 450ºF. Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk for 1 minute. Slowly add the milk and mustard, whisking continuously. Bring to a simmer and season with kosher salt and black pepper. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, then remove from the heat.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out. You can make 2-3 individual size pizzas or one 14-16 inch pizza.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet. Spread sauce over the dough. Sprinkle evenly with the mozzarella and colby cheese then top with peppers, onion bottoms, and ham.
Bake for 5 minutes, then remove from the oven and crack the eggs on top. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes more, or until the cheese is melted and gooey and the eggs are set to your liking.
Sprinkle the pizza with green onion tops, then add a pinch or two of flaky sea salt, and black pepper. Serve right away.
