Something must have been in the breakfast wind last week.
When I first posted about the amazing Breakfast Pizzerts, a lot of people made them. But by and by, the trend died down, as all trends do. (Hello Beanie Babies.) Yet suddenly, in one week, I got no fewer than fifteen comments, pingbacks, tweets, or emails from a fresh batch of pizzert-makers! All this pie-eating action made me jealous; I wanted in on the party.
Nuthin left to do but bake my own Breakfast Pizzert. This particular time, I opted for coconut butter icing. Always a good choice. And now I remember why I loved these things in the first place. But I won’t bore you with my customary “amazing” “delicious” “delectable” descriptions (Seriously, there are only so many ways one can describe yummy food!). Instead, I’ll turn the blog over to my friend, Carrie, who seems to have a much better way with words.
Carrie’s words:
You guys, I seriously think I have reached Heaven… I have experienced not just a party in my mouth but a rave, a massive, full-on, blow-out RAVE. But here’s the thing… the whole thing is the size of a family-style pie (VOLUME!) It tastes just like a pancake, but when you undercook it like I did its more gooey and dense, which is just pure deliciousness…
and the whole batch (without toppings) is only about 220 calories (when you use the ingredients I did)… and then you top it with SO MUCH good stuff and its like a healthier version of a cake, pancake batter, brownie, cookie dough THING. SUCH A SCORE! I also just had this again for lunch today and plan on having it after dinner too.. and then again tomorrow at some time…I am sure of it.
(Katie’s note: see original post for more-specific info: Pizzert Calories.)
Haha Carrie sounds like an infomercial. But she convinced me to pull the recipe back up, after neglecting it for so long.
Along with a fat kiwi, I ate half of the Breakfast Pizzert.
The other half went to a friend. By the way, please excuse the ugly paper plates. I made this at my friend’s apartment, and that’s her choice of dishware. She’s just classy like that. Another reason she’s classy?
She opted to spread her pizzert half with homemade Hot Chocolate Butter. 🙂 Yup, I know how to pick good friends. We had a picnic on the floor, eating pizzerts and looking through magazines. Have you ever had an indoor picnic? They’re perfect for winter. Plus, there’s no need to worry about greedy ants or seagulls!
Question of the Day:
What are your favorite magazines?
I’m not ashamed to admit to reading People. After all, I was on the cover. 😉
Ok ok, not really haha. I also love Time, Clean Eating, and Creating Keepsakes. And my wonderful mom just gave me a subscription to Runner’s World for my birthday. Oh yeah, and I could never forget VegNews!
Looks delish! I really like Glamour.
Favorite magazine – Vegetarian Times 🙂
I’ve never made a pizzert (shame on me 😉 ), but now that I have my hands on a jar of coconut butter, I reeeeeeally need to make one. I’ve been eyeing them ever since you first posted about them!
Oh man, this reminds me that is has been a while since I’ve made your pizzert. Shame on me! It is so amazing. I loved the post from Carrie!! She is too funny and sold that pizzert like it was her job. 🙂 Love you!
YUM YUM! Looks so tasty, with all that coconut butter. Kiwi also sounds great with the coconut taste, too. For some reason I only eat a kiwi like once a year (What’s with that??), but next time I do I will eat it with coconut butter!
I don’t often read or buy magazines– they are so expensive, and half off them are often filled with ads! But I will read vegnews while waiting for my mom to finish grocery shopping at the natural food store :),

The amazing pizzert………. otherwise known as the pancake.
Oh no no lol it’s not like pancakes at all! 🙂
I still love pizzerts!!! Make them all the time, they never get tiring. 🙂
Katie! I made your vegan banana pancakes for one this morning!! They were DELISH. One, they were geared for one person-I hate adapting pancake recipes for 4-6 people! Two, they were super easy to make, and that’s saying a lot from a college student who is pretty lazy! And three, they didn’t even taste vegan! They weren’t hard as rocks, as some pancakes get, and they soaked up the syrup perfectly. Thank you so much!!
Aww Hannah, thank YOU for taking the time to tell me! I’m so excited you made them :). And lol, yes they are easy to make because I am the laziest chef ever, and therefore my recipes are pretty much all geared towards lazy girls like me! College just takes a lot outta you, right? Who has time/energy to cook elaborate meals?! 😉
that looks great!
I was excited there thinking you were were in People mag!
Ah yes, I remember the pizzert, and I can’t believe I still haven’t made it yet. Need to remedy that soon.
US Weekly is my favorite guilty pleasure. 🙂
I have the most unfortunate soft-spot for People magazine. I’d never actually pay for it, as I don’t really LIKE the idea of it, but it’s just so damn entertaining…
And Cosmo. Oh, Cosmo. What a love-hate relationship.
I do like Shape, mostly, and the ones you listed.
Gah, based on this list… I promise I’m not just a popular-media ditz! 😉 I just have my guilty pleasures… lots of them 😉
Hahahahha I so get where you’re coming from. I am totally guilty of picking up the tabloids (Us Weekly especially) and browsing through. I’d never pay for one, because I wouldn’t give them my money. But hey, if I’m waiting in line and am bored… 😉
