Step 1
Lightly coat a 12-inch (30 cm) pizza pan with cooking spray. Place pan in the oven and preheat to 500°F (260°C).
Step 2
On a well-floured surface, roll dough into a 12-inch (30 cm) circle.
Step 3
Remove hot pan from oven. Carefully arrange dough to the edges of the pan. Pierce dough all over with a fork, then lightly brush with some of the olive oil. Evenly spread pizza sauce over top. Sprinkle cheese over dough, and top with olives. Crack eggs over top of pizza.
Step 4
Place pizza in oven and bake until crust is browned and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes.
Step 5
Serve topped with arugula and a drizzle of the remaining olive oil.
• To make dough easy to roll, remove from fridge and allow to rest for 30 minutes.
• For a thin crust, use the lower amount of pizza dough.
• Use any cheese you have on hand.
