Caprese Morning Tofu Pan Pizza ingredients

  • 1 lb Pizza dough (store-bought)
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 14 oz Extra-firm tofu
  • 1 tsp Dried Italian herbs
  • 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
  • 0.25 tsp Salt
  • 0.125 tsp Black pepper
  • 0.5 cup Marinara sauce
  • 0.5 Red bell pepper
  • 1 medium Tomato
  • 0.25 cup Kalamata olives
  • 4 Large eggs
  • 4 oz Fresh mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp Fresh basil

How to make Caprese Morning Tofu Pan Pizza

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil into a 10-12 inch cast-iron skillet or oven-safe pan, ensuring the bottom and sides are lightly coated.
  2. Carefully press the 1 lb of pizza dough into the prepared skillet, stretching it to cover the bottom and creating a slight lip up the sides. If the dough springs back, let it rest for 5-10 minutes, then continue stretching.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the crumbled 14 oz extra-firm tofu with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of dried Italian herbs, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix gently until the tofu is evenly seasoned.
  4. Spread the 1/2 cup of marinara sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch border. Distribute the seasoned tofu mixture over the sauce.
  5. Arrange the thinly sliced 1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced 1 medium tomato, and 1/4 cup of sliced Kalamata olives evenly over the tofu layer.
  6. Using a spoon, create four small wells or indentations in the toppings, spaced evenly apart. Carefully crack one large egg into each well.
  7. Top the entire pizza with the 4 ounces of fresh mozzarella cheese slices or shredded mozzarella.
  8. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown, the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny (for a soft yolk). If you prefer a firmer yolk, bake for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  9. Carefully remove the pan pizza from the oven. Let it rest in the skillet for 5 minutes before slicing into quarters. Garnish with 2 tablespoons of fresh chopped basil before serving immediately.
