BACON AND EGG PIZZA
If you've ever had a hankering for pizza for breakfast, this recipe is exactly what you need. With a topping of creamy ricotta, runny eggs and plenty of crisp bacon, this white pizza doesn't need tomato sauce to give it pizazz. The flavors are a little like a carbonara, with the mozzarella and ricotta making it extra creamy.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 450 degrees, and arrange racks in top and bottom thirds. Place a pizza stone on the top rack.
- Arrange bacon in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake on bottom rack until browned and crisp, 7 to 11 minutes. Using tongs, transfer bacon to paper-towel-lined plate to cool, then slice into bite-size pieces.
- Raise oven temperature to 500 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together ricotta, garlic and salt.
- On a rimmed baking sheet, stretch dough into an 11-inch circle, about 1/8-inch thick. Sprinkle with mozzarella, leaving a slim border around edges. Scatter bacon on top, add red pepper flakes, then dollop tablespoons of ricotta mixture all over pie. Arrange basil leaves on top, then sprinkle with pecorino.
- Place baking sheet on top of pizza stone, and bake for 4 minutes. (Edges of dough should be cooked but not browned.) Remove from oven; use the back of a large spoon to make 2 divots on either side of pizza, and crack eggs into the divots. Return to oven and bake until egg whites are almost but not quite set, about 4 minutes. Set oven to broil, and broil until crust is charred and eggs are cooked but yolks are runny, 30 seconds to 1 minute. (If your broiler is in a separate drawer, transfer baking sheet to your broiler drawer and broil to finish cooking the eggs and brown the crust.)
- Slide pizza onto a cutting board. Top with more basil, flaky sea salt and more red pepper flakes. Drizzle with oil and serve immediately.
