This high-protein Breakfast Pizza features a quick, no-yeast yogurt-based crust topped with fresh vegetables, melted mozzarella, and a baked egg in the center. It’s a nutritious, filling breakfast or brunch option that comes together in just 30 minutes.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 individual pizzas

Ingredients

  • For the Crust:
  • 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour or white whole wheat flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup (240 g) non-fat Greek yogurt, drained if needed
  • For the Toppings:
  • 1 cup (30 g) fresh baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup (56 g) shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 8 cherry tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment or silicone mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add Greek yogurt and mix until small crumbles form.
  4. Lightly flour a surface and knead dough 15–20 times until smooth and tacky. Add more flour if needed.
  5. Divide dough into 4 portions and shape each into a ball.
  6. Roll each ball into a 7–8 inch oval and place on prepared baking sheet.
  7. Top each crust with spinach, mozzarella, and sliced tomatoes, leaving space in the center for the egg.
  8. Carefully crack one egg into the center of each pizza.
  9. Bake 10–12 minutes until crust is golden and egg whites are set. Add 1–2 more minutes for firmer yolks if desired.
  10. Season with salt and black pepper and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use Greek yogurt for a firm, protein-rich crust; regular yogurt may make dough too wet.
  • Customize toppings with additional vegetables or cheese varieties.
  • For runny yolks, pre-bake toppings 3–4 minutes before adding the egg.
  • Reheat leftovers in the oven or toaster oven to preserve crispiness; avoid microwaving.
  • Dough can be prepared ahead and stored in the fridge up to 3 days.
