Cuisine: American
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 whole wheat pita breads
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/4 cup sliced olives
- 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray.
- Place the whole wheat pita breads flat on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap.
- Spread pizza sauce evenly across each pita bread, leaving a small border around the edges for a crispy crust.
- Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the pizza sauce, covering the surface uniformly.
- Distribute diced bell peppers and sliced olives evenly across the cheese layer.
- Carefully crack one egg onto the center of each pita bread, taking care not to break the yolk.
- Dust the top of each pita pizza with Italian seasoning for added flavor.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes before serving to allow the cheese to set slightly.
- Slice each pita pizza in half and serve immediately while hot and fresh.
Tips
- Use fresh, high-quality pita breads for the best crispy base
- Make sure your eggs are at room temperature for more even cooking
- Don't overload your pita with toppings - keep it balanced for optimal crispiness
- For extra flavor, try adding some crumbled bacon or fresh herbs like basil
- Watch your pizza closely in the last few minutes of baking to prevent overcooking the egg
- If you prefer firmer egg yolks, cook a minute or two longer
- Experiment with different cheese blends like adding some parmesan for extra depth
- Serve immediately for the best texture and temperature
