5 INGREDIENT BREAKFAST PIZZA WITH PESTO AND BACON {GLUTEN FREE}

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450, or whatever temperature is recommended for for baking your particular crust.
• Cook bacon until just barely crisp - keeping in mind that it will continue to cook in the oven with the pizza. Move to a paper towel lined plate.
• Spread pizza with a thin layer of the pesto, you may need to adjust the amount of pesto to suit the size of your crust.
• Sprinkle the dough with cheese and bacon. Make three little indents for your eggs, and crack each one over the top and season with a little salt and pepper.
• Bake, for about 12-14 minutes, until crust is golden brown and eggs are done to your liking.
• Remove from the oven and top with parsley, green onions, or chives if using. Allow to cool a minute or two before slicing and serving.

CLASSIC MARGHERITA PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees, with rack in lower third lined with a pizza stone or baking sheet. Turn dough out onto a pizza peel or thin wooden cutting board dusted with semolina (do not punch down). Starting in center and using both hands, press down and outward with your fingertips, rotating dough occasionally. Gradually work toward edges, leaving a 1-inch border of undisturbed dough, until it's stretched to an approximately 13-inch round.
• Lightly drizzle dough with oil; season with salt and pepper. Gently spread sauce evenly to just inside border, top evenly with mozzarella, and sprinkle with Parmigiano. With one quick forward-and-back jerking motion, slide pizza from peel onto stone. (This is not the moment to hesitate! Be brave and bold, and the pizza will slide off the peel.)
• Bake until crust is puffed, golden brown in places, and set on bottom, and cheese is bubbly, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer pizza to a wire rack; let cool 2 to 3 minutes. Top with basil and pepper flakes, slice, and serve immediately.

LEMON-AND-ITALIAN-CHEESE PIZZA

Steps:

• Place a pizza stone on floor of gas oven (remove racks) or bottom rack of electric oven. Preheat oven to at least 500 degrees for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, arrange onion and lemon slices over dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Distribute cheeses evenly; top with rosemary. Season with pepper; drizzle with oil.
• Switch oven to broiler setting. Align edge of peel with edge of stone. Tilt peel, jerking it gently to move pizza. When edge of pizza touches stone, quickly pull back peel to transfer pizza to stone. (Do not move pizza.) Broil until bubbles begin to form in crust, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce temperature to 500 degrees, and bake until crust is crisp and golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes more. (If not using broiler, bake pizza 10 to 15 minutes total.) Remove pizza from oven using peel. Slice and serve.
