- Slide full size Croccantini onto stone; bake until crust is golden brown on bottom and around edges, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, brush nonstick skillet with oil; heat over medium heat.
- Crack 2 eggs into skillet; cook just until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes.
- Transfer pizza to work surface.
- Place 2 fried eggs atop pizza. Scatter shaved Parmesan and arugula leaves over.
- Cut Croccantini “pizza” into wedges and serve.
