Instructions:
-
Prepare the Eggs:
- Begin by cracking the eggs into a large bowl. Using a fork or a whisk, beat them together until fully combined, creating a smooth, uniform mixture.
-
Add Milk and Seasonings:
- To the beaten eggs, add 3 tablespoons of milk. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir the mixture gently to ensure everything is evenly incorporated.
-
Cook the Eggs:
- In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter (or margarine) over medium heat. Once the butter is fully melted and slightly bubbling, pour in the egg mixture.
- Let the eggs cook for about 1-2 minutes, then gently stir them with a spatula, scraping the sides to cook evenly. Continue stirring occasionally until the eggs are set but still soft and creamy. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
-
Prepare the Pizza Crusts:
- Take your dinner rolls and roll each one out into a 5-inch circle on a clean surface. You can lightly flour the surface if needed to prevent sticking. These rolled-out dough circles will serve as the base for your mini pizzas.
- Place the rolled dough circles onto a greased baking sheet, making sure they are spread evenly apart.
-
Assemble the Mini Pizzas:
- Spoon a generous amount of the scrambled egg mixture onto each of the dough rounds. Spread the eggs evenly to cover the surface, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Top each mini pizza with crumbled cooked bacon (about one slice per pizza) and a hearty sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
-
Bake:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Once heated, place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the edges of the dough are lightly golden.
- The mini pizzas should be cooked through and the cheese should be bubbly and slightly browned.
-
Serve:
- Remove the Sunrise Mini Pizzas from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes. Serve them warm for a delightful breakfast or brunch.
Enjoy these tasty, cheesy, and satisfying Sunrise Mini Pizzas with your family and friends! These are perfect for kids and adults alike and make for a fun, hands-on breakfast option that can easily be customized with your favorite toppings.
Additional Tips:
- For a healthier alternative, you can substitute the regular cheddar cheese with reduced-fat cheese or use turkey bacon instead of regular bacon for a lighter option.
- These mini pizzas are incredibly versatile! Feel free to add other toppings like sautéed mushrooms, spinach, or even a drizzle of hot sauce for some extra flavor.
