Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
- 1/4 cup sliced black olives
- 3 oz pepperoni slices
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tsp dried Italian herbs
Why this recipe works
Baking eggs in a sheet pan ensures they cook evenly and quickly, creating a uniform layer that's easy to slice and serve.
The large surface area allows the eggs to set without becoming rubbery, while the high heat of the oven helps the pepperoni crisp up and the cheese melt into a golden, gooey topping. This method is foolproof and hands-off, freeing you up to prepare other parts of the meal or simply enjoy your coffee.
The combination of ingredients mimics the classic pizza flavor profile: savory pepperoni, salty olives, sweet red peppers, and rich mozzarella. The eggs act as a neutral base that absorbs these bold flavors, resulting in a cohesive dish that's both comforting and exciting. Plus, using a sheet pan means you can easily scale the recipe up or down, making it perfect for feeding a crowd or just a couple of hungry people.
Notes and substitutions
The key to this recipe is using a good-quality shredded mozzarella that melts well. Pre-shredded cheese often contains anti-caking agents that can prevent it from melting smoothly, so shredding your own from a block will give you a creamier, more cohesive topping. If you prefer a spicier kick, choose a spicy pepperoni or add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the egg mixture.
Feel free to customize the vegetables based on what you have on hand. Diced bell peppers in any color work well, and you can swap the black olives for green olives or omit them entirely.
For a more substantial meal, you could add cooked sausage or bacon, but keep in mind that the video shows only the ingredients listed here. The beauty of this recipe is its simplicity, so don't overcomplicate it—let the flavors shine.
- diced red bell pepper: diced green bell pepper or chopped roasted red peppers
- sliced black olives: sliced green olives or omit for a milder flavor
- shredded mozzarella: shredded provolone or a pizza cheese blend
