How To Make Tater Tot Breakfast Pizza

Step One

Line the bottom of a greased 12-inch cast iron skillet with tater tot crowns (flat, round tater tots sometimes called potato crowns) and then line the sides of the pan.

Bake the tater tots for 15 minutes.

Step Two

Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat.

Whisk together the eggs and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.

Cook the eggs until just set (they will cook more in the oven).

Step Four

Top with one cup of shredded cheddar cheese.

Step Five

Top with the scrambled eggs.

Step Six

Next, sprinkle with cooked, crumbled sausage.

Step Seven

Add another layer of shredded cheddar cheese.

Step Eight

Finally top the tater tot breakfast pizza with cooked, crumbled bacon.

Bake for an additional 10 minutes.
