Tear the mozzarella into pieces and top each pizza with equal amounts of the mozzarella, ripped up bacon and parmesan cheese. Transfer the pizzas into the oven and bake for 12-13 minutes until the crust is golden. 6 minutes into the baking, add the eggs in the middle of each pizza and continue to cook until the egg white is no longer raw.
