Pizza Frittata Recipe
This Pizza Frittata is a great way to have pizza for breakfast and feel good about it!
As many of you know, I struggle to keep breakfast interesting. Not only do I fight to avoid boredom at my morning meals, I expect them to be easy too. Kind of a tall order sometimes.
I love this recipe because you can make the frittata the night before, keep in in the fridge and bake the final dish with the toppings and cheese in the morning. A great way to heat the kitchen on these cold winter mornings!
A cast iron pan is best for this, but you can also use a baking dish if that’s what you have. I will say that an 1/8 of this is a pretty small portion (see below). You’ll most likely eat two pieces. But I wanted to break it down into the smallest possible amount. You can easily double the numbers if you wish.
I won’t even tell you how many pieces I ate. I was hungry…

PIZZA FRITTATA RECIPE:
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tbsp. milk
- ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 cup cooked ground turkey (optional - I used leftover turkey chili!)
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. onion powder
- 1 tbsp. coconut oil
Toppings:
- ½ cup pizza sauce (see herbal pizza sauce link above)
- any other toppings you enjoy
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- If your coconut oil is solid, melt it first in skillet before adding anything to the pan. Remove the pan from heat before adding anything else to it. The eggs should not cook before going in the oven.
- In your skillet whisk together the eggs, milk or broth, parmesan, cooked turkey, garlic powder, onion powder.
- Place in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. It’s done when you cut into it and you don’t see any liquid.
- Remove from the oven, top with pizza sauce, and toppings of choice. Return to oven just long enough to melt the cheese to a golden glow (about 10 minutes).
- Cut into 8 pieces like you would a pizza and scoop out of the pan with a spatula and serve.
- Once cooled, you can eat this with your hands like regular pizza. Just be sure to have napkins close by because it's a little messier than regular pizza.
Tiffany: I will try this yummy receipt tomorrow a.m. I have a question for you regarding clean eating and ground turkey. When I went to my supermarket recently and looked at the ingredients in the ground turkey, it listed salt and spices and other ingredients I couldn’t pronounce. Where can I buy “clean” ground turkey? Thank you.
Phyllis – You may have to go to the meat counter and ask them to grind up some fresh turkey for you. I get mine at Whole Foods as theirs is just turkey with nothing added. You may want to call around if there are other stores in your area.
This looks really good! I have one question for you. What size skillet did you use? I have a 15″ cast iron skillet (it’s HUGE!), and I’d like to try making this recipe in it, but I’m wondering if I would need to increase the base (eggs, etc.), in order to have it turn out right?
Diane – Ya, I’d say double the recipe. My pan is about 9 inches.
Is the coconut oil measurement taken as a solid or liquid?
Kate – I measured while it was solid.
This looks so good, and is a serious improvement from my boring breakfasts! Looking forward to trying it. Thanks for sharing!
Candace – Let me know how you like it!
I made this tonight using my 15″ cast iron skillet, doubled the recipe and it turned out perfectly! It was delicious and I was very pleased with the way the crust held together. I’m planning on trying a variation of this, a “taco pizza”, using mild salsa for the sauce, and cheddar cheese for the topping, and serving it with taco toppings. Thanks for this wonderful recipe!
Diane – Sounds wonderful!! I’m glad that doubling it worked out! 🙂
Where can i find the pizza sauce? I normally shop at the local gtocery stores. Heb, kroger, or walmart.
Danielle – I make it. If you click the text in the ingredient list, it will take you to the recipe.
I made this today. I doubled the recipe since I have a 12″ skillet. I substituted Organic breakfast sausage as the meat. We topped it with the sauce, fresh spinach and some cheddar. He loved!
Monica – Fantastic! 😀
I made this tonight for a “girls night” with my 3 year old. She’s recently become opinionated and she was hesitant to try it but one bite and she was hooked! I ate half, and she ate a slice. For my side I used spinach and fresh mozzarella. It was super easy, I made it while tending to a sick baby 🙂 thanks for making clean eating easy!
Mallory – My pleasure! I’m so happy you both enjoyed it! 😀
