Ingredients

1 lb Pizza dough homemade or store-bought
10 Campari Tomatoes quarted
2 tbsp Olive Oil or Avocado Oil
3 Sweet Peppers diced
2 Leeks diced (white and green parts), about 1/2 cup
2 Garlic cloves minced
1 tsp Cumin Powder
½ tsp Cumin Seeds
1 tsp Harissa Powder
½ Salt plus a pinch
½ tsp Black Pepper plus a pinch
½ tsp Sugar
⅓ cup Feta crumbled
4 Eggs
¼ cup Parsley coarsely chopped
Hot Sauce optional - to serve

Instructions

Preheat Oven & Prep Ingredients. Dice the peppers and leeks, mince the garlic, and quarter the tomatoes. Add leeks, pepper and garlic to a medium pan over medium heat, with the olive oil. Preheat oven to 550 °F or the highest temperature it can get with the pizza stone in it.
Season. Add the spices and sauté for about 10 minutes until the leeks have darken in color.
Add Tomatoes & Sugar. Add the quartered tomatoes and sugar to the pan. Cook until the tomatoes break down and the sauce starts to thicken.
Prep the pizza dough. Roll out the pizza dough into a thin layer and spread the breakfast pizza sauce mixture evenly on-top.
Create 4 (4-inch) wells in the sauce. Use a spoon to make 4 wells in the sauce to crack an egg into. You want the wells deep enough that the raw eggs don’t spill out. We found that by cracking 1 egg at a time into a small bowl and then carefully transferring to one of the wells. That way if the egg yolk breaks, save it in the fridge for scrambled eggs later and try again with another egg.
Add Cheese. Generously sprinkle feta cheese evenly on top and season with an additional pinch of black pepper and salt.
Bake the pizza. Bake the egg pizza at the highest temperature (550 ° F); your oven can get for about 10-12 minutes, or until doneness. The eggs yolks should still be runny when you take the pizza out of the oven.
HOT TIP: If you want a crisper crust, bake the pizza with the sauce first for about 5 minutes before adding the eggs and feta cheese.
Enjoy. Add minced, fresh parsley leaves generously on top before serving. Maybe, add some hot sauce too, and enjoy!

Notes

The egg yolks should still be runny. If needed, bake the pizza with the sauce for about 5 minutes before adding the eggs and feta cheese.

Store pizza in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop until hot. We like to add olive oil to a pan and love how it crisps up the pizza crust. Goodbye to soggy leftover pizza dough.
