INGREDIENTS

For the dough:

1 cup warm water
1 tsp kosher salt
2 tsp white granulated sugar
2 tbsp olive oil
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/4 tsp (1 pkg) instant yeast

For the white sauce:

2 tbsp bacon grease
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

For the eggs:

4 large eggs
1/4 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

For the toppings:

1/2 lb cooked bacon, chopped
3 scallions, chopped
1 1/2 cups Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

INSTRUCTIONS

For the dough:

In a large bowl, combine the warm water, salt, sugar, and olive oil. Stir to dissolve the salt and sugar. Add the flour and the yeast. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.

Sprinkle the counter with flour and knead the dough until it is smooth, 5-8 minutes. Place the dough in an oiled bowl and allow it to rise until doubled, 45-60 minutes.

For the white sauce:

Cook the bacon until it is well-browned on both sides. Once cooked, remove the bacon and set it on paper towels. Pour the bacon grease into a small bowl. Wipe the skillet with a paper towel and measure 2 tbsp of bacon grease back into the skillet. Heat the grease over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the flour and cook until the flour is bubbling and sticking together in clumps.

Add the milk a few tbsp at a time, stirring with each addition to form a smooth sauce.

Once all the milk is added, stir in the salt and black pepper and bring the mixture to a simmer. Simmer for 30 seconds to one minute until the milk is thick. Over low heat, add the cheese and stir it until it is melted. Remove the skillet from the heat and pour the sauce into a bowl. Set it aside.

For the eggs:

In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, yogurt, salt, and pepper until they are smooth.

Melt one tbsp of butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Once melted, add the prepared eggs and cook slowly until they are just cooked, 2-3 minutes. Once the eggs are cooked, remove them from the heat.

For the pizza:

Once the dough has risen, press it to a 14-inch circle on an oiled pizza pan or baking dish. If the dough pulls back, allow it to rest for 5 minutes. Spread the prepared cheese sauce on the crust, leaving a ½-inch edge around the pizza. Evenly top the sauce with the prepared eggs. Sprinkle on chopped bacon, cheese, and scallions.

Place the pizza in the preheated 375°F oven. Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted, 20-25 minutes. Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
