Breakfast Pizza — The South African Way
Pizza!
Honestly, who doesn’t love pizza?
I once read that “Pizza is not a trend — it’s a way of life.”
Empty plates… now that is every mom’s love language.
Today I’m sharing my breakfast pizza with you — again — because it’s simply too good not to repeat.
It’s quick, easy, uses whatever you have in the fridge, and leaves very few dishes behind. A win for everyone.
𝗜𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀:
As long as you have eggs and milk, you’re halfway there.
Everything else is optional — leftovers work beautifully.
- 6–8 eggs (depending on pan size and hungry mouths)
- 100–150 ml milk (same ratio as scrambled eggs)
- Oil, butter, or margarine
- Cheese (any kind you love)
- Salt & pepper
- Toppings of your choice — I used bacon, salami, and tomato
𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟭: 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲
- Beat the eggs and milk together.
- Heat oil/butter in the same pan you used for your toppings.
- Pour in the egg mixture.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook until the eggs just come together — not fully cooked.
This is your “pizza base.”
𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟮: 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀
- If using leftovers, no need to cook anything.
- If using raw ingredients (like bacon), fry them quickly in the pan first.
- Remove and set aside.
Don’t be shy — breakfast pizza loves generous toppings.
𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟯: 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗣𝗶𝘇𝘇𝗮
Once the egg base is ready:
- Add your toppings. I layered salami first, then bacon.
- Tomato went on only ¼ of the pizza (not everyone in my house loves tomato).
- On my quarter, I often add banana — bacon + banana is a match made in heaven.
𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟰: 𝗔𝗱𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗲𝘀𝗲
What is a pizza without cheese?
I use cheddar, but you can use mozzarella, gouda, feta, or even blue cheese if you’re feeling fancy.
𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟱: 𝗕𝗮𝗸𝗲
Pop the pan into the oven for about 10 minutes, or finish it on the stove until:
- The egg is fully cooked
- The cheese is melted and golden
Cut into 8 slices and serve hot.
𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁
Finish… qeda… qetello… or in Afrikaans: KLAAR!
A breakfast pizza that guarantees empty plates and happy faces.
