Air Fryer Breakfast Pizza

Air Fryer Breakfast Pizza is one of my favorite and easy air fryer breakfast recipes. I love to cut a slice of it off and hand them to my kids as they head off to school. It’s a very easy recipe, with only a few steps, and it makes a wonderful Air Fryer Breakfast.

Who doesn’t love pizza for breakfast? Everyone that’s who, today I loaded this one up with ground (cooked) sausage, scrambled eggs, and shredded cheddar cheese. But you can use whatever you want, want to make it a Vegan Breakfast pizza, remove the meat, or put on some vegan meat, anything works. This is why this recipe is so great!

You really need to pre-bake the crust in the air fryer before you load it up. Otherwise, the toppings will end up burnt, or the dough will be raw. So, take a few minutes and do that extra step so that you have a perfectly cooked Air Fryer Breakfast Pizza.

How To Make Air Fryer Breakfast Pizza

Start by spraying your pan with cooking spray, then roll out the dough into the prepared pan. Pinch with your fingers the seam to close it.

Set the pan into the air fryer for 5-6 minutes at 320 degrees F, air fryer setting, remove when it’s browned.

Add the scrambled eggs, ground sausage, and cheese on top, and set back into the air fryer for another r3-5 minutes at 320 degrees F, air fryer setting.

Some Common Questions Asked About Air Fryer Breakfast Pizza

Can I Use Bacon Instead of Sausage for Breakfast Pizza 

Yes, all you need to do is use cooked bacon or even bacon bits and scatter them on the breakfast pizza. I liked the ground sausage because it’s a great and easy copycat recipe for my famous Air Fryer Breakfast Casserole.

What Type of Cheese Do You Use for Breakfast Pizza 

Today, I used a simply cheddar cheese, but you really can use any cheese that would melt. Some of the popular ones would be:

• Mozzarella Cheese
• Shredded Colby Jack
• Provolone
• Asiago
• Gouda
• Fontina

Other Great Variations For a Great Air Fryer Breakfast Pizza

This is really a base recipe, meaning that you can change it out for any of your favorite toppings. Here are some great ideas for a different breakfast pizza:

• Crust: If you do not have the crescent dough, use pizza dough or even Pillsbury Pizza Crust.
• Sausage: You don’t have to sausage sausages. Use bacon, a combination of bacon and sausage.
• Vegetables: This is a great place to load up on your vegetables, add some sliced bell peppers, mushrooms, spinach anything that you want.
• Cheese: Change out the Cheddar cheese for anything that you want.
• Vegan: If you are looking for Vegan Breakfast Air Fryer Options, change it out for a vegan sausage or vegan bacon.
• Gluten-Free: Looking for an easy Gluten-Free Air Fryer Breakfast Recipe, change to the crust for a gluten-free pizza crust.

What is the best Crust To Use For the Air Fryer?

I used crescent rolls that I had in my refrigerator, but you can use the crescent sheets and cut the excess. Anything you want that will puff up in the air fryer cooking process.

The key is to bake the crescent dough before adding the toppings. This way, the bottom of the pizza is fully cooked.

Can You Make This Ahead Of Time?

I recommend making this on the same day that you want to eat it, otherwise the crust might get soggy.

What you could do is cook the scrambled eggs and fry up the ground sausage—this way, you have already done half the work.

The other option would be to make the pizza crust the night before and your toppings (the scrambled eggs and the ground sausage), Then assemble it in the air fryer.

How To Store The Leftover Air Fryer Breakfast Pizza

If you have any leftover pizza, just place the breakfast pizza into an airtight container, and place the container into the refrigerator.

To reheat from the refrigerator: Place your leftovers into the air fryer basket, and set the temperature to 300 degrees F for about 3-5 minutes. Remove when it’s hot.

For extra flavor I would add some more fresh shredded cheese.

How To Freeze Air Fryer Breakfast Pizza

If you want to make a batch ahead of time and freeze them. Assemble the pizzas after you air fry them.

To freeze them, place them on a baking sheet and then pop the baking sheet into the freezer. When the breakfast pizzas are frozen solid, remove them from the freezer and pop them into a freezer bag.

They will last about 1-2 months in the freezer.

To air-fry from frozen, put the frozen breakfast pizza into the air fryer basket, and set the temperature to 350 degrees F, and air fry for 5-10 minutes, or until warmed.

What To Serve Air Fryer Breakfast Pizza With

If you are looking for something to serve this with, I usually serve it with a big Fresh Fruit bowl. But it goes really well with a big bowl of Air Fryer Shredded Hashbrowns or even Air Fryer Hash Brown Patties.
