Key Ingredients:
- flatbreads: Use any store-bought flatbread such as naan, pita, or lavash. For a healthier option try out homemade Sourdough Flatbread.
- mozzarella cheese: Melts evenly and gives a mild flavor. Swap for cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend for more flavor.
- bacon: Use cooked and crumbled bacon. Turkey bacon or plant-based bacon work well too.
- eggs: Crack directly onto the flatbread for a rustic look. For scrambled texture, beat the eggs and pour them over instead.
- spinach: Adds a pop of color and freshness. Baby spinach works best, no need to pre-cook.

- Make it lighter: Use turkey bacon, reduced-fat cheese, or add extra spinach for more greens.
How to Make Breakfast Flatbread:
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the flatbreads on the baking sheet and brush with olive oil.
- Step 2: Top with mozzarella cheese and diced bacon. Form two wells in the cheese and crack two eggs on each flatbread.
- Step 3: Tear the spinach and sprinkle over the flatbreads. Sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning.
- Step 4: Bake for 8-10 minutes or until eggs reach desired consistency. Remove from the oven and serve.
Recipe Notes & Tips:
- Watch the eggs closely: Bake time varies based on how runny or set you like your yolks. Start checking at 8 minutes.
- Keep toppings balanced: Avoid overloading the flatbreads-too much cheese or bacon can weigh them down or prevent the eggs from cooking properly.
- Use parchment paper: This prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
- Add toppings after baking if needed: Fresh herbs, avocado slices, or a drizzle of hot sauce are great added right before serving.
- Meal prep tip: Cook the bacon ahead of time and keep other ingredients prepped for even faster assembly.
- Make it vegetarian: Omit the bacon or replace with sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, or roasted red peppers.
- Add heat: Sprinkle crushed red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce over the top before serving.
How to Store:
Refrigerator: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
Reheating: Reheat in a 350°F oven for 5-8 minutes, or until warmed through. This helps retain the crispness of the flatbread.
Freezing: Not recommended, as eggs can become rubbery and the texture of the flatbread may suffer after thawing.
Breakfast Flatbread FAQs:
To keep the eggs centered on breakfast flatbread, make slight indents in the cheese or bacon before cracking the eggs. You can also crack each egg into a small bowl first, then gently pour it onto the flatbread for more control. Using slightly thicker flatbread also helps contain the yolk.
