Caprese Breakfast Pizza

This breakfast is inspired by two classic Italian favorites—pizza and caprese salad. The combination makes for one amazing meal that couldn't be easier to make. When fresh tomatoes are in season and at their peak, you won't want to start your day with anything else.

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F.
  2. Brush the top of the pita with olive oil, then spread the minced garlic over the pita.
  3. Crack the egg into a small bowl or ramekin and season it with salt.
  4. Place the pita into the air fryer basket, and gently pour the egg onto the top of the pita. Top with the tomato, mozzarella pearls, and basil.
  5. Bake for 6 minutes.
  6. Remove the pita pizza from the air fryer and drizzle balsamic vinegar over the top.
  7. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before cutting into pieces for serving.
INGREDIENT TIP: Shredded mozzarella and dried basil can be used if fresh is not available. As a general rule, for every 1 tablespoon of fresh herbs, use ½ teaspoon of dried. In this case, I would recommend substituting ¼ teaspoon dried basil.
