Ham, Egg & Asparagus Breakfast Pizza Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 pre-made pizza crust or dough
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup cooked ham, diced
• 1/2 cup fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces
• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). If using pre-made dough, follow the package instructions for pre-baking if needed.
2. Prepare Crust:
   • Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to fit your pizza pan or baking sheet. Transfer the dough to the pan and brush with olive oil.
3. Add Cheese:
   • Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pizza crust. Add the grated Parmesan cheese on top.
4. Prepare Asparagus:
   • In a small bowl, toss the asparagus pieces with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly over the cheese.
5. Add Ham:
   • Scatter the diced ham over the asparagus.
6. Bake Pizza:
   • Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until the crust turns golden, and the cheese has fully melted.
7. Add Eggs:
   • Remove the pizza from the oven. Carefully crack the eggs over the pizza, spacing them out as desired.
8. Return to Oven:
   • Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny. For firmer yolks, bake for a few extra minutes.
9. Garnish and Serve:
   • Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired. Slice and serve warm.

Tips:

• For a crispier crust, pre-bake the pizza dough for 5 minutes before adding toppings.
• Experiment with different cheeses or add extra veggies to suit your taste.

Enjoy your savory Ham, Egg & Asparagus Breakfast Pizza for a delicious and satisfying start to your day!
