Welcome to breakfast week on Never Not Hungry, soon to be followed by sandwich week next week! I realized I had an excess of both breakfast and sandwich recipes that were really messing up my content flow and needed to get them off my chest and out into the world.
I’m going to be honest: this is the the most high-maintenance breakfast of all time. High maintenance, but so so worth it. Sometimes, hard works totally pays off and sometimes it just leaves you tired. This breakfast pizza might do both.
Despite rarely carving out enough time in my day, even on the weekends, to make and eat breakfast/brunch, I love breakfast food the most. It’s comforting and satisfying and, let’s be honest, the best reason to get out of bed in the morning. I watch replays of Brunch at Bobby’s on the Cooking Channel frequently for this reason, to live vicariously through Bobby Flay and obsess and drool over everything he makes. This was one of those killer recipes I saw him make and had to turn into a breakfast for myself STAT.
A tarte flambeé is a majestic Alsatian flatbread topped with cheese, bacon and onions; it might be the epitome of comfort food. There’s usually crème fraîche in the mix somewhere too, often as a base sauce for the pizza.
For this, I used my favorite homemade pizza dough recipe from Roberta’s as the base. The breakfast pizza is topped with slow-caramelized onions, smoky bacon, sharp white Cheddar and creamy goat cheese, soft scrambled eggs, spicy Fresno chiles and the dreamiest soft scrambled eggs. A big ol’ drizzle of herby crème fraîche is all you need to send this straight to Flavortown. OMG, did I really just type that? Sorry, everyone.
Plan ahead and this glorious breakfast can be yours too one day soon.
