Breakfast Pizza

Ingredients:

8 bacon slices, roughly chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons cornmeal
1 ball of homemade or store bought pizza crust
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 lb fresh mozzarella
4 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
Red pepper flakes to taste
Your favourite pizza sauce

Instructions:

Preheat your BBQ to medium high heat, around 450°F. Lightly coat a baking sheet or pizza pan with olive oil. Working on a surface that has been sprinkled with cornmeal, roll out the pizza into a 12-inch diameter round. Transfer to prepared baking sheet or pizza pan. Brush dough with olive oil and garlic. Add your favourite pizza sauce and top with mozzarella and bacon. Place pan onto the BBQ and bake until the edges begin to brown, about 12 minutes. Once the dough is mostly cooked and the cheese is melty, gently crack the eggs onto the pizza. Put the pizza back onto the BBQ and cook until the egg whites have set and crust is golden brown, an additional 8-10 minutes. You can cook longer if you prefer your eggs harder. Remove from the grill and garnish with the fresh basil and the red pepper flakes.
