I love cornbread, you love cornbread, everyone at Delish LOVES cornbread. Why it took us so long to think of an awesome cornbread breakfast is beyond me. I'm sorry for the delay! But I promise this bacon and egg skillet pizza makes the wait so worth it.

The concept for this brilliant mashup came from our site director. When I told her I was stuck on how to turn cornbread into breakfast (my mind was stuck on cornbread casseroles and cobblers … wait what?), she just casually told me to make a pizza-style cornbread skillet, like it was no big deal. But a "pizza" with a cornbread crust and all the BEC fixins is a big freakin' deal. It's amazing.

The base of this recipe is similar to our Tamale Pie and BBQ Chicken Skillet. Prep a box of JIFFY corn muffin mix, preferably using some sour cream, and bake it as a thin layer in a large skillet. That's your base! From there, the process is a lot similar to our amazing Breakfast Pizza. Sprinkle a bunch of cheese and bacon over the crust then crack eggs right on top. Bake for another 15 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your liking.

Until now, you've probably never craved cornbread pizza. But one bite of the crisp bottom, fluffy cornbread, sharp cheese, smoky bacon and runny yolk, you better believe you'll crave it now. ALL THE TIME.
