Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil onto each tray. Place the bases onto the trays. Top each base with the pizza sauce, bacon, baked beans, cherry tomatoes, and cheese. Using the back of a spoon, make three indentations into the toppings of each pizza, creating a space to crack the eggs into.
Place the pizza (on tray) onto the stone and bake over indirect medium-high heat for 25 minutes. Five minutes into the cooking time, crack the eggs onto the pizza, inside the indentations. Continue to cook the pizza for a further 20 minutes, or until the base is cooked and the cheese is golden.

Dust the baking paper with a generous amount of fine semolina. Place the rolled out base on top. Add the toppings. Once ready to cook the pizza, hold the baking paper and the board/tray, while sliding the base onto the stone.
