How To Make Tater Tot Breakfast Pizza
Tater Tot Crust
Line the bottom of a greased 12-inch cast iron skillet with tater tot crowns (flat, round tater tots, sometimes called potato crowns) and then line the sides of the pan. Bake the tater tots for 15 minutes.
Remove the tater tots from the oven and use a spatula to press down on the top and sides of the crust to smash the tater tots a bit.
Breakfast Pizza Toppings
Shredded Cheese
Top the crust with one cup of shredded cheddar cheese. The cheese will melt and help hold the crust together.
Scrambled Eggs
Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Whisk together the eggs and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Cook the eggs until just set. They will cook more in the oven.
Spread the scrambled eggs over the tater tots in an even layer.
Sausage
Next, sprinkle with cooked, crumbled sausage. You could also use bacon bits or diced ham.
More Cheese
Add another layer of shredded cheddar cheese. Or you could top it with some homemade cheese sauce!
Bacon Bits
Finally, top the tater tot breakfast pizza with cooked bacon crumbles and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
Make Ahead and Storage
Make Ahead: To prepare the breakfast pizza ahead of time, assemble it up until the final baking. Allow the pan to cool, cover it, and place it in the fridge overnight. When ready to serve, remove from the fridge and bake at 425° for 25-30 minutes.
Storage: Allow the leftovers to cool and then store them in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days or in the freezer for up to four weeks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use regular tater tots?
Yes, just smash them a bit more than the tater tot crowns to flatten them out.
2. Do the eggs have to be cooked beforehand, or can they be poured over the tater tots and cooked in the oven?
They can be baked all at once, but the final dish will look different.To make it that way, pour the whisked eggs over the tater tots in the pan. Add the other toppings and bake at 425° for 25-30 minutes or until fully cooked.
How can I make this more hearty?
Double or triple the scrambled eggs, sausage,and bacon.
Can I make it in a 9×13-inch pan?
Yes, you can make it in a 9×13-inch pan or another casserole dish if you prefer.
