English Muffin Breakfast Pizza
English Muffin Breakfast Pizza is a fun and delicious spin on a breakfast classic, blending the toasty crunch of English muffins with the cheesy, savory satisfaction of pizza. Each muffin half becomes a mini crust, toasted to golden perfection, then layered with creamy scrambled eggs, crisp bacon or sausage, and melty cheese. Whether you're hosting brunch, need a quick weekday breakfast, or just want something comforting, this dish hits the spot every time.

Instructions
Prep the Eggs:
- Whisk the eggs with milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

Toast the Muffins:
