Traditional Egg Gondola
Traditional Egg gondola or Adjarian Khachapuri is a delicious breakfast pizza from Georgia. And one of my family's favorites. It's easy and simple to make, and it's so tasty. This specific kind of khachapuri has a unique shape, looks like a boat filled with gooey cheese filling, baked, then topped with butter and egg, at preference. You can also add ham, bacon or tomatoes as toppings.

  6. Divide the dough into two portions. Roll out into approx. 10x8 inch rectangle shape.
  7. Fold the sides, pinch the edges, and shape it into a boat/ gondola.
  8. Fill with the cheese mixture and bake on a lined baking sheet 15-20 minutes
  9. After 15 minutes of baking, or as it starts to turn a golden color, add an egg in the center
  10. Return to the oven for another 4-5 minutes or until the eggs are cooked
