Zucchini Breakfast Pizza Crust

Zucchini Breakfast Pizza Crust

This Zucchini Breakfast Pizza Crust is proof that healthy food can also be hearty, flavorful, and fun. Whether you’re cutting back on gluten, sneaking in more veggies, or just looking to shake up your morning routine, this plant-forward recipe has you covered. Made with shredded zucchini, plant-based mozzarella, and a few simple ingredients, it’s a nutrient-rich alternative to traditional dough—and it holds up beautifully to all your favorite toppings.

What makes this crust so special is its foundation: zucchini, a low-calorie vegetable packed with fiber, vitamin C, and antioxidants. By squeezing out the moisture and mixing it with gluten-free flour, a bit of plant-based cheese, and a protein-rich egg, you get a crisp-edged, savory base that’s both satisfying and light. The addition of garlic, oregano, and basil brings classic pizza flavor without relying on heavy ingredients.

Not only is this recipe a great way to get more veggies in at breakfast, but it also fits into a variety of dietary preferences—gluten-free, vegetarian, and dairy-free. Top it with your favorites: eggs for protein, cherry tomatoes for brightness, or fresh herbs for a pop of freshness. It’s versatile, customizable, and perfect for meal prepping or impressing brunch guests.
