What kind of English muffins are best for breakfast pizza?

Any standard English muffins will work great! Whole wheat options can add extra fiber. Lightly toasting them before adding toppings is key to prevent sogginess and ensure a crispy base.

Can I use different sauces besides pizza sauce?

Absolutely! Get creative with your base. Pesto, a thin layer of cream cheese, or even a savory white garlic sauce can make for a unique and delicious breakfast pizza. Just ensure the sauce isn't too watery.

How do I make English Muffin Breakfast Pizzas for a crowd?

These are perfect for serving a group! You can set up a 'pizza bar' with various toppings and let everyone assemble their own. Bake them all at once on a large baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd.

Can I freeze assembled English Muffin Breakfast Pizzas?

Yes, you can! Assemble the pizzas, then flash-freeze them on a baking sheet until solid. Once frozen, wrap each pizza individually in plastic wrap and store in a freezer-safe bag for up to 1-2 months. Reheat from frozen in a toaster oven or conventional oven.

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven or toaster oven to 375°F (190°C). If using an air fryer, preheat to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: Split English muffins in half and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly toast them in the oven for 2-3 minutes to prevent sogginess.
Step 3: Remove the muffins from the oven. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce evenly over each muffin half.
Step 4: Sprinkle generously with shredded cheese.
Step 5: Add your desired toppings (ensure any meats are pre-cooked).
Step 6: Return the assembled pizzas to the oven (or air fryer). Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and the muffin edges are golden brown. If using an air fryer, check after 5 minutes.
Step 7: For extra crispiness, you can finish under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
Step 8: Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
