Egg "Pizza" Caprese
It isn’t quite a pizza, although it has the toppings of one. It isn’t quite a fritatta, although it has the eggy-ness of one. Maybe it’s best to just think of an egg-based “pizza” as a whole different dish…and if you don’t feel like making dough, don’t have any on hand, or are looking for a gluten-free crust, an egg pizza is a very quick and easy meal to fix. Just slice, grate, chop or otherwise prepare your toppings before cooking the eggs — you’ll be amazed at how fast your pizza will be ready to go into the oven!
Egg Crust Pizza
Step 1: crack as many eggs as you’d like (I figure on 1-2 per person) into a bowl and use a fork to scramble them
Step 2: pour eggs into an oven-proof skillet with a melted pat of butter in it
Step 3: cook for about 2 minutes on medium heat or until top is fairly firm (you may have to tilt the pan back and forth to help the last of the runny egg flow over the sides and onto the bottom where it can cook)
Step 4: remove from heat and add your toppings (veggies, fresh or dried herbs, cheese, meat, etc.)
Step 5: bake at 350 for about 10 minutes
Use a spatula or other soft utensil to “slice” your pizza into wedges. Serve immediately.
Enjoy!
