For the Hollandaise Sauce:

4 egg yolks

½ cup melted salted butter

¼ cup lemon juice

Instructions

Preheat & Prep Dough:

 

Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). Roll out pizza dough on a baking sheet or stone.

Tear and evenly distribute ham slices over the cream cheese.

 

Sprinkle grated Swiss cheese on top.

 

Bake the Base:

Cook the Eggs:

 

While the pizza bakes, poach or soft-fry 6 eggs to your preferred doneness.

 

Make Hollandaise:

 

In a heatproof bowl over simmering water (double boiler), whisk egg yolks and lemon juice until thickened.

 

Slowly drizzle in melted butter, whisking constantly until smooth and creamy. Remove from heat.

 

Assemble the Pizza:

 

Once pizza is baked, gently place eggs on top.

 

Drizzle generously with warm Hollandaise sauce.
