Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 12-2 cups all-purpose flour (195g)
- 2/3 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons oil
Yeast and Seasonings:
- 1 package instant or quick yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Craft a soft, elastic pizza dough by blending flour, yeast, salt, sugar, oregano, and garlic powder with warm water and oil. Knead the mixture until smooth and elastic, approximately 5-7 minutes.
- Gently stretch the dough across a pizza pan, ensuring an even surface with minimal tears.
- Render bacon to a crisp texture, then crumble into rustic pieces.
- Whisk eggs with milk, seasoning with salt and pepper to create a rich, creamy scramble.
- Sauté eggs in a skillet, cooking just until they begin to set but remain slightly runny, then remove from heat.
- Distribute the soft scrambled eggs evenly across the prepared dough surface.
- Sprinkle additional garlic powder and parsley over the eggs for enhanced flavor.
- Generously layer crumbled bacon and shredded cheese across the pizza.
- Slide the pizza into a preheated 425°F oven, baking until the crust turns golden and cheese melts completely, approximately 12-15 minutes.
- Garnish with freshly sliced green onions before serving for a vibrant, aromatic finish.
Notes
- Prep the dough ahead of time and let it rise for a softer, more flavorful crust that melts in your mouth.
- Swap regular bacon for turkey bacon or plant-based alternatives to create a lighter, diet-friendly version that doesn’t compromise on taste.
- Use a cast-iron skillet to achieve a crispy bottom and evenly cooked pizza that provides a restaurant-quality texture at home.
- Experiment with additional toppings like spinach, mushrooms, or diced bell peppers to boost nutritional value and add exciting flavor combinations.
