• 10 eggs
• 1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
• 1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste
• 1 teaspoon butter, or as needed
• 2 pinches Italian herb seasoning, or to taste
• 1 dash chipotle hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat a convection oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an ovenproof baking dish with butter.

Step 2

Break eggs into a bowl. Add milk, 1 pinch Italian herb seasoning, salt, black pepper, and chipotle hot pepper sauce and mix with a whisk. Pour into the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

Tear mozzarella cheese into pieces and place on top of egg mixture in an even layer. Place bacon slices on top of cheese in an even layer.

Step 4

Roll pizza dough out halfway. Stretch dough over sides of baking dish firmly, allowing about 1/4-inch extra on each side. Use kitchen scissors to trim away any extra dough.

Step 5

Pour olive oil in a small bowl and add remaining Italian seasoning and garlic powder. Pour mixture over dough. Top dough with shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven until dough is golden and cheese is nicely crisped, 15 to 20 minutes.
