Breakfast Pizza - Crème Fraîche for Breakfast - Day 24 of 30 #CremeFast

Breakfast Pizza w/ Rosemary, Bacon, Mushroom, & Caramelized Onion | adapted from: ModernIndulgance.com

Ingredients: 

• 8 ounces of pizza dough, homemade or storebought (half of a standard package, so double the recipe if making a full pizza) 
• 1/4 cup creme fraiche 
• 1/2 cup and 2 tbsp. grated parmesan, divided 
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella 
• 3 slices thick cut bacon 
• 1 small red onion, chopped 
• 1/2 cup sliced baby bella mushrooms 
• 2 medium eggs 
• 1/2 sprig of fresh rosemary, chopped 

Instructions: 

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees 
• Lay strips of bacon in a cold skillet and cook over low heat, flipping occasionally so the bacon browns easily on both sides, cooking until the bacon is cooked through and starting to crisp, about 8-10 minutes. 
• Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate. 
• Pour out extra rendered bacon fat, reserving about 1 tbsp in the pan. Add the chopped red onion and cook over medium-high heat until onions are translucent and golden, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside. 
• Add the chopped mushrooms to the same pan and cook until mushrooms begin to shrink, about 5 minutes. 
• Season with salt and pepper. Remove from pan and set aside. 
• Stretch dough over a lightly floured surface into a 12-14 inch wide oval. Transfer to a baking sheet or pizza stone. 
• Spread the creme fraiche into a thin layer, leaving a 1/2 inch for the crust. Add layer of mozzarella and 1/2 cup of parmesan, then spoon the mushrooms and caramelized onions around the edges of the pizza to form a ring. 

   For runny yolks: 

• Separate the egg whites from the yolks, and add only the egg whites into the center of the pizza. Lay the strips of bacon on the edges of the egg whites. Bake the pizza for 5-7 minutes until the egg whites begin to set. Briefly remove the pizza from the oven and add the egg yolks into the center of each egg white. 
• Bake the pizza for an additional 3-5 minutes until egg whites are fully set but yolks are still soft. Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle chopped fresh rosemary and remaining grated parmesan on top. 
• Slice and enjoy. 

   If you want fully cooked yolks: 

• Add the whole eggs into the center of the pizza. Lay the strips of bacon at the edges of the eggs, and bake the pizza for 8-10 minutes until the eggs are fully set. 
• Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle chopped fresh rosemary and remaining grated parmesan on top. Slice and enjoy.
