Easter brunch anyone….

I tried the Breakfast Pizza recipe from my favorite food blogger Smitten Kitchen the other day.  It was good, and really so lovely to look at.  Too bad we jumped right in and started eating before I remembered to take a photo.  So you only get a look at one slice.

You’ll have to give it a try for brunch on Sunday.  Or heck, it tasted great at dinner time in our house.

Breakfast Pizza
Use recipe for your favorite pizza dough.  You can make it for dinner, or let it proof over night in the fridge and take it out and let it rise for an hour in the morning.

6 strips bacon
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
2 cups grated mozzarella
6 large eggs
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons minced chives
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 shallot, minced

Fry the bacon in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat until crisp. Cool on a paper-towel-lined plate; roughly chop.

Dip your hands and a ball of dough into the flour. On a lightly floured countertop, pat the dough into a disc with your fingertips, then drape the dough over your fists and carefully stretch it from beneath to form a 12-inch circle.

Generously dust the surface of a pizza peel or large inverted sheet pan with flour and place the stretched dough on it. Sprinkle the dough with half of the Parmesan, mozzarella and bacon. Crack 3 eggs over the top and season with salt and pepper.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes on a baking stone, rotating after 5 minutes. When the crust is golden, the cheese is melted and the egg yolks are cooked,  transfer the pizza to a cutting board. Sprinkle the parsley, chives, scallions and shallot on top. Let cool for 2 minutes, slice and serve immediately. Prepare the second pizza in the same way.
