Breakfast Pizza
Ingredients:
- 1 package bacon
- 1/2 cup butter
- 2 tablespoons margarine
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped green onion
- 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper
- 1 package refrigerated biscuit dough
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare baking dish: Spray a 13×9-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Roll out dough: Separate biscuit dough and arrange it in a rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Roll it out into a 14×10-inch rectangle.
- Shape the crust: Place the rolled-out dough in the prepared baking dish, pressing the edges up the sides of the dish to form a crust.
- Bake the crust: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, until the crust is set and lightly golden. Once done, remove it from the oven and set it aside.
- Cook the bacon: While the crust bakes, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove the cooked bacon from the skillet and drain it on paper towels. Once cooled, crumble it into small pieces and set it aside.
- Make the sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour, salt, and black pepper until smooth. Gradually add the milk, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens.
- Add cheese: Once the sauce has thickened, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and well combined.
- Assemble the pizza: Spread the cheese sauce evenly over the baked crust. Then, top it with the crumbled bacon, chopped green onions, and chopped red bell pepper.
- Bake again: Return the assembled pizza to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the toppings are heated through.
- Serve: Once baked to perfection, remove the breakfast pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving hot.
