Breakfast Pizza

Simple, a delicious (hello bacon) combination of ingredients, and a little unique. It's what got me to concede to a do-over on going to bed last night, when I remembered at 12:36 a.m. that I wanted to make the dough for these so we could have them this morning. So throw together some dough in my jammies I did, but it was so quick and easy that I was back in bed by 12:42 with two fresh blobs of dough tucked away on their sheet pan in the fridge.

The recipe is here, from the NYT, with an accompanying article about a lovely indie Bakery in Big Sur, CA that sounds just like my kind of place.

Breakfast Pizza:


The super easy and quick to make crust gets topped with mozzarella and parmesan and then bacon and egg, and once out of the oven, some shallot, scallion, parsley and chive. It's FABULOUS, and I have to say that there is something weirdly satisfying about cracking raw eggs onto a pizza crust and slipping it onto the hot pizza stone.

Totally, totally worth getting out of bed for, on both the making and the eating end. I recommend the addition of a little drizzle of good olive oil before plating:


I think this is one of those recipes I'm destined to make again and again, and it's definitely on the menu for my next girls brunch.

Comments:
I'm so happy to see a review of this recipe - I wasn't sure if I wanted to try it when I saw it in the NYT, but now I'm going to have to.
 
OMG- I'm all ears when bacon and pizza are combined!
