Hi there,

I've been reading about cinnamon bites and was wondering if I could use pizza dough. Or really, what could I do for a breakfast show with pizza dough.

I'm going to make the breakfast squares in the large bar pan and was wondering if there was something quick and sweet I could do with pizza dough (that I have available). Oh, I also have the lg round stone w/handles.

Thanks!
Ellen
 
You could just put apple pie filling on top of the dough and add the cinnamon to the top and then maybe even drizzle a glazed around the top of it. This would allow you to use the large stone with handles, the pastry roller to roll out the dough, the can opener to open the apple pie filling, the cinnamon sprinkles and even the decorator bottle set to drizzle the glaze (If you have to make your own glaze then you have the batter bowl, measuring cups and spoons, whisk). This is basically like the dessert pizza they have on the lunch buffet at Pizza Hut LOL
 
Hi Ellen,Great question! There are definitely some delicious and easy breakfast ideas you can make using pizza dough. Here are a few suggestions:1. Cinnamon Bites - You can definitely use pizza dough to make cinnamon bites. Simply roll out the dough, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar, and cut into bite-sized pieces. Then, bake in the oven until golden brown and serve with a glaze or icing on top.2. Breakfast Pizza - Use your round stone with handles to make a breakfast pizza! Roll out the pizza dough and top with scrambled eggs, breakfast meats, and cheese. Bake until the crust is crispy and the cheese is melted.3. Breakfast Calzones - Similar to the cinnamon bites, you can fill pizza dough with your favorite breakfast ingredients such as ham, cheese, and scrambled eggs. Fold the dough over and seal the edges, then bake until golden brown.4. Apple Cinnamon Roll-Ups - Roll out the pizza dough and spread with apple butter or cinnamon sugar. Roll up the dough and slice into rounds. Bake until golden brown and serve with a glaze or icing on top.5. Breakfast Stromboli - Roll out the pizza dough and layer with your favorite breakfast ingredients, such as scrambled eggs, sausage, and cheese. Roll up the dough and bake until golden brown. Slice and serve as a delicious breakfast sandwich.I hope these ideas inspire you to get creative with your pizza dough for breakfast. Enjoy!Best,
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What are some quick breakfast ideas using pizza dough?

You can create breakfast pizzas topped with scrambled eggs, cheese, and your favorite breakfast meats. Another idea is to make breakfast calzones filled with ricotta, spinach, and sun-dried tomatoes.

Can I use store-bought pizza dough for breakfast recipes?

Absolutely! Store-bought pizza dough is a convenient option that saves time. You can find it in the refrigerated or frozen section of most grocery stores. Just follow the package instructions for thawing and rolling out the dough before using it in your breakfast recipes.

How can I make a healthy breakfast using pizza dough?

To make a healthier breakfast, consider using whole wheat pizza dough or adding plenty of vegetables to your toppings.

Popular toppings for breakfast pizzas include scrambled eggs, cheese (like mozzarella or cheddar), cooked bacon or sausage, fresh vegetables (such as spinach, tomatoes, and bell peppers), and herbs like basil or chives. You can also experiment with different cheeses and sauces, such as pesto or a light tomato sauce, to add unique flavors.
