Recipe Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
It’s important to pre-bake the pizza crust so that it’s nice and done when the toppings are finished cooking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Be sure to remove the eggs just a bit before they’re fully cooked. The eggs should still have a wet sheen to them. They’ll finish cooking in the oven.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

Try adding crumbled bacon.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
