Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 16 oz store-bought pizza dough
- 1 heaping cup grated mozzarella cheese
- 8 oz feta cheese crumbled
- 1 whole egg, plus one egg yolk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and a drizzle of olive oil, set aside.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl fold together the mozzarella, feta and one whole egg.
- Use your hands to roll and stretch the pizza dough into a large round circle or oval shape then transfer it onto the prepared baking tray. Fill the center of the dough with the cheesy egg mixture leaving a 1-inch boarder around the edge of the pizza. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
- To serve, drop an egg yolk right into the center hot the bubbling, hot cheese. Season with freshly ground black pepper and serve piping hot! Cut the khachapuri pizza into slices or tear off pieces of the crust and scoop up the filling.
Notes
A note on egg yolk:
- If you're freaked out by the idea of runny egg yolk you can pop the pizza back in the oven until the yolk is done to your preference or skip it all together.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refridgerator for up to three days. Reheat in a preheated 375F oven for 5-10 minutes.
