All the key components of a basic breakfast, including eggs and bacon, are included in this hearty bacon and egg breakfast pizza. It is super easy to cook in the morning while sitting around camp. It also makes a fun lunch or breakfast for dinner.
The pizza base is an America style biscuit, like a scone. This is not only a common breakfast accompaniment but also much quicker and easier to make the base in the morning compared to a traditional pizza yeast dough. If you’re really in a hurry, you can use a pre-cooked pizza dough base.
The toppings for this breakfast pizza are very basic and taste great. If you are looking for something a little more hearty, you can add other favorite breakfast toppings. Try sliced sausages, tomatoes, or sauteed mushrooms.
This recipe was cooked on an Aquaforno as an example of the wide range of meals that can be cooked on it.
