A quick and easy breakfast pizza crust made from rolled oats, perfect for busy mornings. Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and ready in under 15 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (90g) rolled oats
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter (for cooking)
  • Toppings of choice (e.g., 1 fried or scrambled egg, ¼ cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella, avocado slices, red pepper flakes)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup (90g) rolled oats, 1 large egg, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (if using). Stir with a fork until everything is evenly moistened and the oats are fully coated. Let it sit for 2 minutes.
  2. Place a non-stick skillet or cast iron pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter. Swirl to coat the bottom.
  3. Pour the oat mixture into the center of the hot skillet. Using the back of a spoon or a spatula, press it down evenly into a round shape, about ¼-inch thick.
  4. Let the crust cook undisturbed for 4 to 5 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the surface looks set.
  5. Slide a spatula carefully under the entire crust and flip it. Cook the second side for 3 to 4 minutes, until golden and crispy.
  6. Reduce heat to low. Add shredded cheese and any other toppings (e.g., an egg). Cover the pan with a lid for 2 to 3 minutes, until the cheese melts and the egg is cooked to your liking.
  7. Slide the pizza onto a plate, add finishing toppings (e.g., avocado, hot sauce, fresh herbs), and cut into wedges. Serve immediately.

Notes

For a vegan version, use a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water, let sit for 5 minutes). For a lower-carb option, replace half the rolled oats with almond flour. The crust is best enjoyed fresh out of the pan for maximum crispiness.
