Tortilla Egg Bake Breakfast Pizza with Bacon
This tortilla egg bake pizza is one of those recipes you’ll end up making on repeat. It’s quick, easy, and hits all the right notes—crispy tortilla base, fluffy eggs, melty cheese, and that salty bacon on top? So good, I even made it high in protein. It's basically a cross between a quiche and a frittata, but a pizza, too!

Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 tortilla (10-12 inches) Burrito/large size
- 3 eggs You can use egg whites if you wish.
- ¼-1/2 cup cottage cheese See notes.
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- ½ cup chopped bell peppers
- 1 cup chopped spinach
- ¼ cup diced mushrooms
- 3 pieces bacon Cooked and crumbled.
- ½ cup grated cheese I used cheddar and mozzarella.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Grease the bottom and edges of the baking dish. This is important if you want to prevent sticking. I used olive oil.
- Add the tortilla to the baking dish.1 tortilla (10-12 inches)
- Add the eggs, cottage cheese, and spices to the dish. Beat to combine.3 eggs, ¼-1/2 cup cottage cheese, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, salt and pepper to taste
- Add in the veggies and bacon. Stir.½ cup chopped bell peppers, 1 cup chopped spinach, ¼ cup diced mushrooms, 3 pieces bacon
- Sprinkle the grated cheese on top.½ cup grated cheese
- Bake for 20-25 minutes (or air fry at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes) or when the eggs are no longer jiggly. Gently shake the pan and see if the center wiggles. If it's still jiggly continue baking until the eggs set. Mine was ready around 22 minutes.Use your judgment. I prefer soft and fluffy eggs like a frittata or quiche. If you like your eggs well done it will take more time.
- Allow the dish to cool before removing it from the pan. I like to wait at least 5-10 minutes.

I use ½ cup of cottage cheese because I like a creamy, fluffy texture for the filling. If you want this to be more egg based, than use 2 tablespoons - ¼ cup of cottage cheese. Use your judgment.
The edges of the tortilla get golden and crisp, kind of like a thin-crust pizza. That little crunch gives it a nice base you can hold like a slice. It's not overly crunchy though!
The center is softer where the eggs, cottage cheese, and toppings sit—creamy, custardy, and fluffy like a baked frittata or breakfast quiche. I think it's perfect!
The cheese on top gets melty and gooey, and if you bake it long enough, you’ll get those irresistible golden brown spots. Bacon or any other toppings add extra texture—crispy, chewy, or fresh depending on what you add.
Use whatever veggies you like. I recommend your favorite omelet order.
During my testing I noticed 10-12 inch tortillas work best. I like to use the ones labeled "burrito" or "large." Extra large will work, too. Those are good if you want a bigger pizza.
In terms of type, any type of tortilla will work including whole wheat and carb balance.
