Pizza for Breakfast!

This phenomenon is not something I haven't tried before, but I recently found a recipe for Breakfast Pizza. I'm interested in trying it and wanted to see if anyone else was brave?!?! I'm not sure about the scrambled egg and pizza sauce combination, but someone suggested substituting white gravy for pizza sauce. Anyway, I am always trying to find great recipes and wanted to share this one. If you try it let me know what you think...



Pepperoni Breakfast Pizza 
(I would probably do hamburger or ground turkey....I'm not a pepperoni lover)



1 1/2cups Original Bisquick® mix
1/3cup hot water
8eggs
1/4cup milk
1/8teaspoon pepper
1cup diced pepperoni (from 6-oz package)
2medium green onions, sliced (2 tablespoons)
1tablespoon butter or margarine
1/2cup pizza sauce (from 8-oz can)
1 1/2cups finely shredded Italian cheese blend (6 oz)
1tablespoon sliced fresh basil leaves, if desired

  1. Heat oven to 425°F. Spray 12-inch pizza pan with cooking spray. In medium bowl, stir Bisquick mix and hot water until soft dough forms. Press dough in bottom and up side of pan, using fingers dipped in Bisquick mix, forming rim at edge.
  2. Bake 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  3. Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat eggs, milk and pepper with wire whisk or fork until blended. Stir in pepperoni and onions. In 12-inch nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add egg mixture; cook 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until firm but still moist.
  4. Spread pizza sauce over baked crust. Top evenly with egg mixture. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake 3 to 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted and pizza is hot. Sprinkle with basil.
