Za'atar and Egg Pizzette
Pizza dough - see recipe here, or use your favorite recipe
1/2 cup za'atar spice mix
olive oil
eggs
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
Heat oven to 500°F. Once your pizza dough has risen, cut off a handful of dough and set on a flour surface. Use your hands to flatten the dough into a rustic circle shape and then transfer to a pizza pan. I a small bowl mix a few tablespoons of za'atar with a tablespoon or two of olive oil. Mix until a thick paste-like mixture forms. Spread a few spoonfuls over the pizza dough. Gently crack an egg over the center of the pizza. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Repeat with remaining dough. Bake for 8-12 minutes or until egg is set and crust is light brown. Remove and let rest 5 minutes.
You can easily make breadsticks with any remaining dough by placing on a small pan. Lightly pat out into a 1 inch thick rectangle. Cover and leave in a warm place to rise for 30 minutes. Drizzle with a bit of olive oil and generously dust with grated Parmesan cheese and a little salt. Cut into 1 inch sticks. Bake until lightly browned and then brush with melted butter. Serve with warm marinara dipping sauce.
