Breakfast Pizza, Four Ways!

This paleo breakfast pizza is such a fun way to mix up your weekend breakfast game. I included four of my favorite topping variations to spark some inspiration. With a nut-free plantain pizza crust, these variations of breakfast pizza can be tailored to meet all dietary needs.

When I have an early flight out of PDX, breakfast is usually a gluten-free breakfast pizza from Mod Pizza, which is where this recipe draws its inspiration. The crust is thin, chewy, and subtly sweet from the plantains. I’ve included four variations, but you can get creative with your desired toppings.

It’s really important to buy GREEN plantains for your crust. The starch content is higher in these underripe plantains, so they hold their structure much better and they won’t impart too much sweetness to your crust. After pureeing your crust, spread the batter very thin. These crusts can feel more like flatbread if you make it too thick.

These breakfast pizzas would be fun to serve at a brunch. Make the crusts ahead of time and have your guests decorate their own pies! My daughter had a blast choosing her own toppings, mixing and matching as she pleased.
