Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Start by making the crust. Crack eggs into a medium-sized bowl and add the rest of the crust ingredients. Give it a good stir to combine.
- Line a pie plate (a normal sized pie plate is big enough for two portions), or any other ovenproof dish, with parchment paper (crumple the sheet before you flatten it out to make it stay down more easily). Pour in the pizza crust batter. Spread it out evenly with a spatula. Bake for 15 minutes until the pizza crust turns golden.
- Use a spatula to spread tomato sauce over the crust. Top with cheese.
- Bake for another 10 minutes or until the pizza has turned a golden brown color.
- Sprinkle with oregano and serve.

I'm glad you enjoyed this! Thank you for sharing.
If you need 2 servings, you can use the drop down menu over the list of ingredients to change the number of servings. Yes, 2 servings calls for 4 eggs.
This was really good, not bland at all.
This one was a hit with my family, even my pickier daughter :)
Thank you for your feedback!
Right? So glad you love it!
We have not tested alternate cooking methods for this dish. You could try completely on a stove or hot plate but it runs the risk of burning the exterior before the interior is completely cooked through.
So glad your family loves it!
I am not sure what other cheese would bring the same characteristics to the crust. There may not be a good substitute.
Love the addition of pepperoni and herbs! Yes, leftovers are the best! So glad you enjoyed it.
