- Spread pizza dough into a 12” or 14” pizza round on your pizza pan.
- Spread ¼ cup of marinara sauce onto the pizza dough. Avoid putting sauce on the very edges. Add more sauce, if desired.

- Add cooked sausage to pizza, avoiding the areas where the eggs will be.

Notes
Recipe Notes:
- When adding toppings, use the sausage and cheese as little barriers for the egg. This will prevent the egg from spreading all over the pizza.
- Do not overcook the pizza after adding the egg. The egg will cook quickly and the yolk will look raw but will be cooked through if you cook longer than 6 minutes.
- If you prefer, scramble the eggs a little before adding to the pizza at the end of the cooking time.
- Serve with hashbrowns and fruit.
