Vegetarian Breakfast Pizza

A golden pizza dough crust gets brushed with olive oil and baked in a screaming-hot skillet until the edges turn deep golden and crisp. It's layered with a silky homemade white sauce — butter and flour cooked into a nutty base, then loosened with milk and seasoned with garlic powder — spread right to the edge for maximum coverage. Soft, gently folded scrambled eggs go on next in big glossy curds, followed by a generous blanket of shredded mozzarella that melts into bubbling, lightly browned pools in the oven. A scatter of fresh chives right before slicing adds a bright, herby finish that cuts through all that rich cheese and sauce. This one's an easy favorite for a vegetarian brunch spread, whether you're feeding a crowd or just want something more exciting than toast on a weekend morning.

1 tbsp olive oil

For the white sauce

1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp all-purpose flour
¾ cup whole milk
¼ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper

For the toppings

6 strips bacon
Chef's tip
Cook it only until crisp, adding a little oil to the pan - vegetarian bacon cooks much faster than pork bacon and can scorch. If the recipe simmers or bakes the bacon further, set it aside and stir it back in near the end.
6 large eggs
2 tbsp whole milk
salt and pepper, to taste
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

For serving

2 tbsp fresh chives, thinly sliced (optional)

Instructions

1
Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and place a 12-inch cast iron skillet or an inverted baking sheet on it. Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) for at least 20 minutes.
2
Cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until the fat has rendered and the strips are crisp, about 8–10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate, let cool slightly, then crumble or chop into bite-sized pieces.
