Raise your hand if you love a good flatbread pizza! I am right there with you, whether the pizza toppings include traditional things like pepperoni and sausage or something a little hip and fun like goat cheese and prosciutto. Pizza can be a delicious way to start your day, especially this easy breakfast pizza using Pete & Gerry’s Pasture-Raised Eggs and fresh herbs from my garden. The warm wet weather this month has them absolutely taking over my patio, just looking for a recipe to shine in.  

Pasture-Raised Eggs Matter

Eggs are a healthy, sustainable source of protein and essential nutrients. I make sure to eat several a week and yes, they even make a great topping for breakfast pizzas!

I am very picky about my eggs and think you should be too. Healthy eggs come from healthy hens which do a great deal to help create a healthier planet. Pete & Gerry’s understands that and their hens have free range to roam. They were the first U.S. egg brand to become Certified Humane and a Certified B Corporation.

Know what I love about pasture-raised eggs? You can SEE and TASTE the difference compared to regular grocery store eggs. They have thicker shells and darker yolks thanks to foraging and improved nutrition.

Pete & Gerry’s Pasture-Raised flocks roam on expansive green pastures with 108 square feet of outdoor space per hen, allowing them to forage, explore, and socialize to their hearts’ delight.

Breakfast Pizza Ingredients

This flatbread breakfast pizza requires very few ingredients and, even better, very little time. Here is what you need for one pizza. Scale up if you are feeding more than just yourself.

Just a quick note, I chose to use garlic aioli as my ‘sauce’. You could use plain olive oil, traditional tomato sauce, pesto, alfredo sauce, or whatever other flavors your heart desires.

Ingredients:

• One naan flatbread.
• 3 to 4 TBSP garlic aioli.
• One Pete & Gerry’s Pasture-Raised Egg.
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese.
• 2 to 3 TBSP sliced red onion
• Mixed fresh herbs of your choosing, finely chopped

 

How to Make Flatbread Pizzas

I love using flatbread as my pizza crust because I rarely have the time or energy to make my own pizza crust. Making this naan pizza takes only a few minutes. Assemble your ingredients, pile the toppings onto the naan, slide it onto a preheated pizza stone, and pour on the egg. Then just let it bake until set.

Let me just mention that YES, this is a runny yolk. If you are squeamish about soft-cooked eggs and need your egg completely dry and set firm inside, you will have to fry it in a pan first before sliding it onto your pizza. I am perfectly fine with soft, runny yolks so this one-step process worked just fine for me. Be patient though, and let your pizza cook until the white is completely set.

 

Make sure your oven is preheated with the pizza stone inside. A hot pizza stone will help give your crust a little firmness on the bottom.

Also, feel free to change up the cheese you use on this breakfast pizza as well. Cheddar or goat cheese would add a nice twist as well.

Just lay your flatbread on a cutting board and spread your sauce on top. Sprinkle the shredded cheese and red onion on top, leaving a small area slightly less full to pour the egg onto. Once you put the pizza on the pizza stone in the oven, pour the egg onto it and close the door.

Let the pizza bake until the egg white is set and the cheese is starting to brown, about 10 to 12 minutes. Then, remove it from the oven and sprinkle with fresh herbs before slicing and eating.

This is a great recipe for summer when you are looking for something to do with all those fresh herbs in your garden. And remember, breakfast for dinner is a huge hit, especially on lazy summer evenings when you just don’t have the energy for a big meal.
