Ingredients
Basic pizza dough
- 2⅔ cups (400g) White Wings Plain Flour, sifted
- pinch of sea salt flakes
- 7g sachet dried yeast
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3/4 cup (180ml) water
Breakfast pizza
- 1 quantity Basic Pizza Dough (see recipe above)
- 1/2 cup (140g) pizza sauce
- 1 cup (100g) grated mozzarella cheese
- 6 rindless bacon rashers, torn
- 6 eggs
- 40g baby spinach & rocket salad leaves
- 1/2 cup (40g) shaved parmesan
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Method
- Combine flour, salt, yeast, oil and the water in a medium bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook. Mix on low until just combined. Increase speed to medium and mix for 7 minutes or until combined and dough forms a soft ball.
- If dough is too dry, add 1 tbsp of water at a time until dough comes together.
- Transfer dough to an oiled large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or a clean tea towel. Stand in a warm place for 40 minutes or until dough doubles in size. This is known as proving.
- Divide dough in half. Roll each portion on a floured surface into a 30cm round.
Make basic pizza dough:
- Place two oiled baking or pizza trays in the oven, then preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.
- Place dough rounds on hot trays. Using a fork, prick base of dough. Spread bases evenly with sauce, then top with mozzarella and bacon.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Remove pizzas from oven. Carefully crack 3 eggs on each pizza, 5cm apart. Return to oven and bake for a further 8 minutes or until the cheese has melted, eggs are just set and the pizza base is crisp.
- To serve, top each pizza with salad leaves and parmesan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
KIDS’ TIPS: You can make the pizza and freeze it until required; just hold back on the eggs and salad on top. This is a great way to use up the vegetables in the fridge for other toppings. You could also make mini pizzas; just divide the basic pizza dough into four. If you are only making one pizza, freeze the remaining dough to use later.
