Ingredients

  • 4 slices sandwich bread
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup pizza sauce
  • 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 tsp italian seasoning

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a shallow bowl, whisk together the 4 eggs, 2 tbsp milk, and 1/4 tsp salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Melt the 2 tsp unsalted butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, tilting to coat the bottom.

  3. 3

    Dip each slice of 4 slices sandwich bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides, then arrange the slices in the skillet, edges overlapping slightly, to form one solid layer that fills the pan. Pour any remaining egg mixture over the top to fill in the gaps.

  4. 4

    Cook undisturbed until the bottom is set and lightly golden, about 3 to 4 minutes.

  5. 5

    Slide the egg-bread base onto a large plate, then invert it back into the skillet to cook the other side. Cook 2 to 3 minutes more, until fully set with no runny egg remaining.

  6. 6

    Spread the 1/4 cup pizza sauce evenly over the top and sprinkle with the 1/2 tsp italian seasoning and 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese.

  7. 7

    Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and cook until the cheese is fully melted, about 3 to 4 minutes.

  8. 8

    Slice into wedges and serve warm.

Questions

Can I make Egg Bread Pan Pizza dairy-free?

Yes. The dairy in this entry is 2 tbsp milk, 2 tsp unsalted butter, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded. Swap the milk for unsweetened oat or soy milk; the butter for olive oil where it melts, or a plant-based block butter where it is creamed; the cheese for a plant-based melting cheese (expect a milder flavor). The richness shifts slightly, but the method does not change.

Can I make Egg Bread Pan Pizza gluten-free?

Yes. The gluten in this entry is 4 slices sandwich bread. Swap the bread or crumbs for a gluten-free loaf or gluten-free panko. Everything else proceeds as written.

How long does Egg Bread Pan Pizza keep?

Refrigerate leftovers within two hours and eat them within three days. Reheat uncovered in a 400 F oven (or an air fryer) for a few minutes to bring the crust back; the microwave softens it.

Can I halve or double Egg Bread Pan Pizza?

Yes. As written it serves 2. Every ingredient in this entry carries precomputed half and double quantities, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. When doubling on the stovetop, use your widest pan or work in two batches so the food sears instead of steaming.
