Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Cheese and Sauce

  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup tomato sauce

Toppings (Optional and customizable)

  • Pepperoni slices or other toppings as desired (e.g., mushrooms, bell peppers, olives)
  • Fresh basil or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base: Whisk the eggs thoroughly in a bowl with Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and well combined, forming the protein-rich crust.
  2. Cook the Base: Heat a non-stick skillet or oven-safe dish over medium heat and pour the egg mixture evenly. Cook until the base begins to set but remains slightly soft on top, creating a sturdy layer for toppings.
  3. Add Tomato Sauce and Cheese: Spread tomato sauce evenly over the partially cooked base, then sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously on top.
  4. Layer Your Toppings: Add your favorite toppings such as pepperoni, mushrooms, or vegetables over the cheese, customizing your pizza to your preference.
  5. Bake Until Golden: Transfer the skillet or baking dish to a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and edges turn golden brown.

Notes

  • Use fresh herbs and high-quality cheese for the best flavor.
  • Avoid overloading the base with toppings to prevent sogginess and maintain good texture.
  • Pre-cook wet vegetables like mushrooms or spinach to reduce excess moisture.
  • Mix mozzarella with parmesan cheese to add depth and richness.
  • Use a non-stick or well-greased pan to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
