How to Make Bacon and Egg Pizza Bagels
Ingredients you’ll need for this recipe
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Prepare the oven. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cook the eggs. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. In a bowl, beat the eggs with the milk, salt, and black pepper.
4. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring often, until the eggs are almost completely set. Keep them a little soft so they are easier to spread over the bagels.
5. Prepare the bagels. Arrange the bagel halves in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
6. Add the toppings. Spoon the scrambled eggs over each bagel half, gently pressing them down so they stick.
7. Sprinkle the cooked bacon and shredded Colby Jack cheese on top.
8. Bake. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
Serve & Enjoy!
Serve. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Important Recipe Notes
- Use mini bagels: Mini bagels are great for bite-sized breakfast portions. You can also use regular bagels if that is what you have on hand.
- Do not overcook the eggs: Cook the eggs until they are almost set but still a little soft. They will continue cooking in the oven.
- Use fully cooked bacon: Cook and crumble the bacon before adding it to the bagels. This helps keep the baking time short.
- Gently press the scrambled eggs onto each bagel half so they stay in place when adding the toppings.
- Divide the eggs, bacon, and cheese between the bagel halves so each one has a good amount of toppings.
- Keep an eye on the oven: Bake for 5 to 8 minutes, just until the cheese melts. Avoid baking too long, as the bagels can become too hard.
- You can prepare these bagels ahead of time and freeze them individually for an easy breakfast later.
- Let the bagels cool completely before wrapping and storing them in an airtight container. They can be frozen for up to one month.
