Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large pieces of store-bought flatbread or naa
  • 1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese, shredded or sliced thinly
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved lengthwise
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chiffonade or torn by hand
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, for brushing and drizzling
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, to season the crust
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze, optional for drizzling

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Place flatbreads on a large baking sheet. Brush each piece lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder.
  3. Spread the mozzarella cheese evenly across the flatbread, leaving a small space at the edges.
  4. Arrange the halved cherry tomatoes over the cheese and press them down slightly.
  5. Make four small indentations in the cheese and tomato layer, and crack one egg into each well.
  6. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the whites are set and the yolks remain slightly runny.
  7. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and fresh basil.
  8. Drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired, slice into wedges, and serve immediately.

Notes

Ensure to pat dry fresh mozzarella to avoid sogginess. Crack eggs into ramekins before adding to flatbread to prevent shell fragments.
