Time 54m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 slices low-sodium bacon
½ teaspoon olive oil
½ onion, thinly sliced
1 (16 ounce) package refrigerated pizza dough (such as Trader Joe's®)
1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
cooking spray
1 (6 ounce) package fresh baby spinach

Steps:

  • Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels; crumble into small pieces.
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until translucent and starting to brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat; transfer to a bowl.
  • Roll out pizza dough into a 12-inch circle and press into the bottom and 1 inch up the sides of a well seasoned 10-inch cast iron skillet. Fold the edges of the dough under and crimp like a pie.
  • Mix ricotta cheese and garlic powder together in a bowl; spread over the bottom of the crust. Scatter bacon, onion, mozzarella cheese, and black pepper on top.
  • Place cast iron skillet over high heat until mozzarella cheese starts to melt, about 3 minutes.
  • Transfer skillet to the preheated oven; bake pizza until crust is lightly browned, about 18 minutes.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and coat with cooking spray. Add spinach; cook, stirring frequently, until wilted, about 1 minute. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess moisture. Place spinach over pizza; slice into 8 wedges.

Tips:

  • For a crispier crust, preheat your skillet over medium-high heat before adding the dough.
  • If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a regular nonstick skillet. Just be sure to grease it well so the dough doesn't stick.
  • To make sure the eggs are cooked through, cook the pizza for 10-12 minutes, or until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking.
  • Feel free to get creative with your toppings! Some other great options include bacon, sausage, bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms.
  • Serve the pizza immediately, while it's hot and fresh.
