1

In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast; let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.
2

Add flour, salt, and olive oil, then knead into a soft dough; cover and let rise for about 1 hour until doubled in size.
3

Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F). Divide dough into 4–5 portions and roll each into an oval shape.
4

Fold the edges inward and twist the ends to form a boat shape, leaving a well in the center.
5

Mix the cheeses and fill each dough boat generously.
6

Bake for 12–15 minutes until the bread is golden and cheese is bubbling.
7

Remove from oven, crack an egg into each center, and return to bake for 3–5 minutes until the egg white sets.
