Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 450°F. On a floured surface, roll the 1 lb pizza dough into a 12x8 inch oval. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  2. Step 2

    Mix 2 cups mozzarella and 1/2 cup feta in a bowl. Spoon the cheese mixture down the center of the dough, leaving a 2 inch border on all sides.

  3. Step 3

    Cut the dough edges into 1 inch strips on each side. Fold the strips over the cheese, pinching the ends to form a boat shape with a well in the middle.

  4. Step 4

    Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly. Remove from oven and make a well in the center of the cheese.

  5. Step 5

    Crack the 1 egg into the well and return to the oven for 3-4 minutes, until the egg white is set but yolk is still runny. Top with 2 tbsp butter and serve hot.

  6. Step 6

    Tear off pieces of the crust and dip into the egg and cheese mixture to eat.
