Start your morning with a delicious twist by combining fresh spinach, crispy bacon, and eggs on a warm, cheesy crust. This breakfast pizza is easy to make and perfect for sharing with family or friends.
Start by heating your oven to 425°F (220°C) and placing the pizza on a baking sheet. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 13 to 15 minutes. While the pizza is baking, warm some olive oil in a frying pan and sauté the bacon, onion, and bell pepper until they’re nice and tender, which should take around 8 to 10 minutes. Drain any extra grease, then add the chopped spinach and garlic to the pan. Stir everything together until the spinach wilts, then transfer the mixture to a small bowl and let it cool for a few minutes.

Step 2
Once the pizza is out of the oven (leave the oven on!), mix the egg whites into the veggie and bacon mixture. Carefully spoon this topping over the pizza, going slowly so the eggs don’t spill over the edges. Use your spoon to catch any drips and gently spread them back on top.

Step 3
Put the pizza back in the oven for another 10 minutes to let the egg cook through. Then sprinkle on the Cheddar cheese and bake for an extra 5 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. When it’s done, take it out and scatter some fresh basil over the top before serving.

Cook's tip
- Pre-cook the bacon until crispy to avoid sogginess on the pizza.
- Use fresh spinach and add it just before baking to keep it vibrant and tender.
- Crack the eggs onto the pizza carefully to keep the yolks whole and cook them to your preferred doneness.
