Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package store-bought pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 slices cooked bacon
- 1 cup grape tomatoes
- 1 handful baby spinach
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to warm up.
Roll out the store-bought pizza dough on a floured surface until it's about 12 inches in diameter, and transfer it to a piece of parchment paper.
Brush the dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then sprinkle it with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle an even layer of mozzarella cheese and shredded cheddar cheese over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Crumble the cooked bacon into smaller pieces and scatter them evenly over the cheese.
Slice the grape tomatoes in half and add them to the pizza along with the baby spinach.
Use the back of a spoon to create a shallow divot near the center of the pizza, and carefully crack the egg into the divot. This will help keep the egg in place while cooking.
Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over the toppings.
Carefully transfer the pizza (still on the parchment paper) to the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden-brown, the cheese is bubbly, and the egg white is set but the yolk is still slightly runny.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle fresh parsley on top for a burst of color and flavor.
Slice into wedges and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious breakfast pizza!
