Breakfast pizza is a savory breakfast that’s hearty, satisfying, and super easy to make! A crescent roll crust is topped with sausage, hash brown potatoes, cheese, and eggs for a delicious breakfast everyone will love.
A Brunch Crowd-Pleaser
This breakfast pizza is one of my family favorites when it comes to weekend brunch recipes! It’s easy to make and so delicious, especially with the buttery crescent roll crust. (If you love easy recipes made with crescent roll dough, be sure to check out my Crescent Roll Breakfast Casserole and Sausage Cream Cheese Crescent Rolls too!)
Although I usually make this for brunch get-togethers, it’s really the perfect breakfast for any day of the week because you can store leftovers in the fridge and heat them up later! (I mean, when you can start your morning with pizza, it’s bound to be a good day, right?)
Tips for the Perfect Breakfast Pizza
This recipe is easy, but I’ve got a few pointers for you before you get started!
- Pinch together any holes in the dough. It’s likely that when you unroll the crescent roll dough, you’ll have some tears and gaps. Be sure to pinch them together, otherwise the egg mixture will leak and go underneath the pizza, making it stick to the pan!
- Whisk the egg well. Be sure to really break up the yolk and incorporate it into the white so you don’t have streaks of white in the breakfast pizza once it’s baked.
- Don’t add a sauce. There’s not any sauce in this recipe, and because the eggs are poured over the toppings, it wouldn’t really work to add one. That said, you could make gravy to spoon over the top of this breakfast pizza once it’s done baking. (Sausage gravy breakfast pizza?! Yes!)
Variations
- Use egg whites instead of whole eggs with egg yolks to lighten things up.
- Garnish your breakfast pizza with green onions or chives, or serve it with hot sauce and your other favorite toppings.
- Swap the pork sausage for turkey sausage or crispy bacon.
- Make it vegetarian by adding bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms instead of sausage.
How to Store and Reheat Leftovers
Breakfast pizza can be stored in the fridge for up to four days. When you’re ready to eat it, just reheat it in the microwave or in your oven at 375ºF until it’s warmed through.
You can also freeze breakfast pizza! Just place it in a freezer-safe container or wrap it tightly in aluminum foil or plastic wrap. It will keep in the freezer for up to three months. When you’re ready to eat, thaw the pizza overnight in the fridge and then reheat it in the oven at 375ºF until it’s warmed through.

Absolutely! And then warm it up in the microwave as needed all week!
