Folded breakfast pizza
An egg, sausage, bacon and baked beans folded calzone pizza.
This recipe makes 2 nice big pizzas, perfect for two hungry people! I don't think I could eat this for breakfast though, but it makes a wonderful evening meal!
It's worth draining the excess sauce from the baked beans and removing the extra water from the mozzarella or your pizza might be a bit soggy.
You can make your own pizza dough or buy ready made pizza dough, the rest is easy. There's a page here on how to crimp the folded pizza if you're unsure how to do it.

Ingredients
Printable 🖨 shopping 🛒 list & 👩🍳 method for this recipe
- 1 portion pizza dough
- 2 slices of Treacle Cured Bacon from Russell's of Upwell
- 2 pork sausages
- 2 large eggs
- 1 can of Heinz beans (415 g)
- 1 ball mozzarella cheese
- 100 g grated cheddar cheese
- 50 g grated gruyere cheese (optional)
- Cornmeal for dusting; use plain flour at a push
Mise en place
- Tip the beans out into a sieve or colander and leave it for an hour to allow most of the sauce to drain. Discard the drained sauce.
- Squeeze as much of the water as you can from the mozzarella and tear into small pieces.
- Leave it in a sieve to drain while the beans do the same.
- Preheat your oven to 210° C (410° F - gas 6)
Method
- Slice the sausages lengthwise - this helps them cook properly
- Chop the bacon into small bite-size pieces
- Grate the Cheddar or mixture of hard cheeses
- We find it easier to divide the fillings onto separate dishes prior to 'building' the two pizzas - up to you!
- Divide the pizza dough into two portions and roll out on a worksurface liberally dusted with cornmeal to stop it sticking
- If you're using a pizza stone, build the pizzas on a really well dusted baking tray or you'll never get them off your work surface
- When filling the pizza try to keep the filling to one half of the pizza dough
- Also make sure you leave a decent 'edge' unfilled or you will have a job crimping it
- Sprinkle the mozzarella and cheddar, etc. over one half the base of each pizza
- Pour the baked beans over the cheese
- Cover with the chopped bacon and place the slices sausages over the beans and cheese
- Top with a raw egg
- Fold the pizza over and crimp the edges to make sure none of the lovely filling escapes while cooking
- Make a couple of holes in the top of each pizza
- Bake for 30 minutes at 210° C (410°)
- Remove it from the oven and leave to rest for 10 minutes if you can wait! This way you can make sure the sausage is properly cooked

- I got the idea from this from a daytime tv air-fryer advert and thought that using a pizza stone I can do a better job of this than they did in an air-fryer
