Sweet & Salty Avocado Breakfast Pizza

10 May, 2016 by Giselle Rochford 15 Comments

If you follow me on Instagram, you’d know that I’m a little obsessed with toast at the moment. I mean what’s not to love? It’s quick, customizable and combines two of my favourite things: carbs and toppings. But ever since I made these breakfast tacos last week, I’ve been reaching for tortillas instead of bread in the mornings, which is how this sweet & salty avocado breakfast pizza came about.

Honestly, there’s not much about this that resembles traditional pizza. I use whole wheat tortillas instead of pizza crust. There’s no cheese. And there’s fruit on it. But, it’s round and I use a pizza cutter to slice into it so it must be a pizza. Hashtag logic.

Regardless of what it’s called, this avocado breakfast pizza is one of the easiest things I’ve ever made for breakfast. Which is great since I always wake up starving and the less amount of time between opening my eyes and filling my stomach, the better. Bonus points for the fact that this looks sophisticated AF with minimal work.

Sweet & Salty Avocado Breakfast Pizza

Now that we’ve talked about why I’m suddenly in love with avocado breakfast pizza, let’s talk about the few ingredients that are actually in/on it.

First up is the tortilla or pizza crust. I have no inclination to make a pizza crust from scratch first thing in the morning, so I went with tortillas. If you don’t have any on hand, you can go with pitas or even toast. Although, that last one would make this more of a souped up avocado toast and less of an avocado breakfast pizza. Up to you, though.

Next up is avocado. Obviously. Is any breakfast meal really complete without avocado these days? In this case, the avocados act as the pizza ‘sauce’ so they’re plenty necessary if you ask me.

And finally the toppings. Arguably the best part of the dish and definitely the place where you can get the most creative. I went for fruit, a handful of walnuts, a sprinkle of pepper and salt and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. I’ve always been skeptical about the fruit/balsamic vinegar combo but I’ll gladly admit to being wrong if it means I can have this avocado breakfast pizza on repeat.
