Breakfast Pizza is one of my family’s favorite breakfast recipes. My Mom used to make this every Christmas morning, and now it’s a tradition for my little family as well. From the crescent roll crust to the eggs and cheese and everything in between, this pizza is filling and so tasty. Plus this pizza is made in a sheet pan, so it’s super easy to make!

5-Star Review
“This is amazing! I teach High School Foods class and my students made this in class. We used 1lb of sausage and the crescent roll sheets. Taste is superb!” – Lisa
I’ve been making this crescent roll breakfast pizza for years, and it’s always a hit! Whether it’s Christmas morning, a weekend brunch, or just a cozy day at home, this easy breakfast bake brings everyone to the table. The buttery crescent roll crust pairs perfectly with savory sausage, crispy hash browns, melty cheese, and a rich egg mixture that ties it all together. It’s one of those recipes that feels special but is simple enough to whip up anytime. Trust me—once you make it, it’ll become a go-to favorite in your home, just like it has in mine!
Crescent Roll Breakfast Pizza Topping Ideas
- Meat Lovers: Swap the hashbrowns for crumbled bacon and diced ham.
- Veggie Lovers: Swap the sausage for spinach, onions, mushrooms, and peppers.
- Ham & Cheese: Swap out the sausage for diced ham and use Swiss cheese.
- Southwest: Spread a layer of refried beans over the pizza crust and top it with seasoned ground beef, diced tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, and Mexican cheese. Garnish with avocado, sour cream, and cilantro.
- Greek: Spread a layer of tzatziki sauce or hummus over the pizza crust. Top with diced cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, Kalamata olives, and crumbled feta cheese. Sprinkle with oregano.
Tips for Success
- Be sure to grease your sheet pan so that the pizza is easy to remove once it is baked.
- Crescent rolls are an easy hack to create a rich, buttery crust that goes perfectly with the breakfast flavor of this pizza. You can use homemade crescent roll dough if you prefer.
- You can use mild, hot, or maple-flavored sausage. I recommend Jimmy Dean brand.
- For the best texture and flavor in every bite, distribute the sausage, hash browns, and cheese evenly before pouring over the egg mixture.
- Oven times vary, so keep an eye on the pizza toward the end of baking. The eggs should be set, and the crust should be golden brown before removing from the oven.

Becky’s Tips
- Be sure to thaw the hash browns before using them, if they are frozen they will not cook through fully. Thaw them in the fridge overnight before using.

How to Make Breakfast Pizza Step by Step
Prepare the Crescent Roll Dough: Preheat the oven to 375°F and 1 tube (8oz) of crescent roll dough from the fridge. Let the dough come to room temperature for about 15 minutes. Spray a small sheet pan (10×15 inches) with nonstick cooking spray.
Brown the Sausage: In a skillet, brown 8 oz breakfast sausage for about 8-10 minutes until cooked through.
Press Dough and Layer Sausage: Unroll the crescent roll dough and place it in the bottom of the prepared pan. Press the dough evenly to cover the entire surface, pinching any seams together to create a solid crust. Spread the cooked sausage evenly over the dough.
Layer Potatoes and Cheese: Evenly distribute 1 cup of thawed frozen hash browns over the sausage. Then, sprinkle 1 cup of shredded Mexican cheese on top.
Whisk the Eggs: In a separate bowl, whisk together 5 large eggs, 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, 1/2 tsp ground black pepper, and 2 tbsp freshly grated Parmesan.
Add the Egg Mixture: Pour the egg mixture over the cheese, ensuring it covers the entire dish.
Bake and Serve: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the eggs are set. Since oven temperatures may vary, check for doneness around the halfway mark.
How to Store and Reheat
Breakfast pizza is best enjoyed as soon as it’s cooked, but leftovers will keep for 2-3 days in the refrigerator and can be reheated in the oven at 400°F until warmed through.
How to Freeze
Freeze breakfast pizza whole or cut into individual slices tightly wrapped in 2 layers of plastic wrap and 1 layer of aluminum foil for up to 3 months. Reheat directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the bake time.
Serving Suggestions
This breakfast pizza is a pretty complete meal. I suggest serving it with a side of fruit and cream cheese dip or a strawberry mango smoothie. Since this is a savory breakfast, I also love to pair it with something like Monkey Bread or Cinnamon Rolls.
If you’re in the mood for a cocktail with breakfast, I love to mix up Sherbet Mimosas, Champagne Sangria, Pitcher Mojitos, or Peach Frose.
Can’t wait to try!! Sounds wonderful!
How many servings is this supposed to make?
Hi Josephine, this recipe serves 6!
With the egg mixture does the crust get crunchy? I’m goin to bake one so wondering n cant wait. Thanks…
Hi Michael, we found that the edges still crisped up nicely!
What do you use for like a sauce on the pizza to make the toppings not fall off
Hi Lupe, this is a white pizza, so the cheese holds the toppings on!
