Breakfast Pizza

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 ½ tsp kosher salt
  • 1 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup spinach
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 8 cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 4 strips turkey bacon, cooked
  • 4 large eggs

Directions

Preheat oven to 450 °F, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking powder and salt.

Add yogurt and mix until combined well, dough should have consistency of small crumbles. 

Lightly dust flour on work surface and take out dough from bowl. Knead lightly until dough is tacky, not sticky. No dough should be left on your hands when you pull away. 

Divide into four equal balls. Sprinkle a work surface and your rolling pin with flour. Roll the dough out into thin ovals, 7 to 8 inches and put on the prepared baking sheet.

Top with spinach, mozzarella, tomatoes, leaving the center open for the egg. 

Softly break one egg in the center of each dough and finish with bacon.

Bake 10 - 12 minutes, until crust is golden, and the egg is cooked. 

Season with salt and pepper.
