How To Assemble a Healthy Breakfast Pizza

Step #1: Choose Your Crust/Base

First, choose your crust — whip up a healthy homemade crust or opt for a store-bought option! With so many options, you can easily customize your base for any diet or food preference: make it grain-free, gluten-free, vegan, keto, or paleo. 

Here are some of our favorite breakfast pizza bases:

Savory Pizza Crust Ideas:

  • Flatbread
  • Pita bread
  • Homemade or store-bought pizza dough 
  • Tortilla (we love these grain-free, gluten-free, and vegan tortillas
  • Homemade or store-bought cauliflower pizza crust 

Sweet Pizza Crust Ideas:

  • Tortilla 
  • No-bake granola-based crust  
  • Watermelon or thick-sliced fruit
  • Pancake crust/base
  • Rice cake 

Step #2: Choose Your Sauce/Spread

Next, choose your sauce or spread. You don’t need sauce, but what’s a pizza without sauce?! Just like traditional pizza, the sauce or spread helps the ingredients come together, provides flavor, and prevents your recipe from becoming too dry. Add a thin layer before adding your toppings.

Savory Pizza Sauce Ideas:

  • Tomato sauce 
  • Avocado or guacamole 
  • Hummus 
  • Pesto 

Sweet Pizza Spread Ideas:

  • Yogurt (Greek or non-dairy)
  • Mashed berries or jam
  • Nut, seed, or coconut butter 
  • Dairy-free cream cheese 

Step #3: Choose Your Toppings

The last (and best) step — the toppings. Get creative here and make it your own. Really, anything goes! Here are some ideas:

Savory Pizza Topping Ideas:

  • Scrambled or fried eggs 
  • Tofu scramble
  • Avocado 
  • Roasted sweet potato 
  • Chopped breakfast protein (such as bacon, ham, or sausage)
  • Shredded cheese (dairy or dairy-free)
  • Sliced veggies (such as bell pepper, onion, tomato, mushrooms, and broccoli)

Sweet Pizza Topping Ideas:

  • Fresh fruit
  • Granola
  • Chopped nuts or seeds
  • Nut or seed butter 
  • Coconut flakes 
  • Cacao nibs or dairy-free chocolate chips
