Perfect For Brunch, This BLT Breakfast Pizza Recipe Is Also An Anytime Supper Sensation

When it comes to breakfast during the busy work week, I often grab a bagel, a bowl of cereal or some fresh fruit. But on weekends, I crave something a bit more decadent. That's why I love this BLT Breakfast Pizza recipe. It's a delicious twist on a classic lunchtime sandwich. And we have a couple of tricks that make it extra-irresistible.

We whip up an easy from-scratch dough with flour, compound butter and cream cheese. For a kick we sprinkle in a bit of cayenne pepper and apple cider vinegar . To ensure a crisp texture, we brush the dough with garlic butter, add some cheese and par-bake before adding the other ingredients. Then the remaining cheese creates wells for holding the eggs so the whites stay intact while cooking. It turns out so yummy. Give it a try then let us know if you have a favorite breakfast for dinner recipe.
