Pizza for breakfast? Why not, especially when there’s only 2 grams of net carbs in the whole thing? One of my all-time favorite discoveries of low-carb cooking was that eggs make an excellent crust for all your favorite pizza toppings.
Grease an oven-safe 8-inch round high-sided skillet (a seasoned cast-iron pan is perfect). Heat the prepared pan over medium heat. Set an oven rack 6 inches under the broiler and preheat the broiler.
Pour the eggs into the hot pan, then sprinkle on the Italian seasoning and season with salt and black pepper.
When the eggs have started to set on the bottom, top with the tomato slices, pepperoni, and mozzarella. Cover the pan and cook for 1 to 2 minutes to fully cook the eggs. Remove from the heat.
Place the pan under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes to lightly brown the cheese.
Notes
Other pizza toppings can be added as well, like cooked sausage, mushrooms, or spinach.
