Mix 2 cups mozzarella and 1/2 cup feta in a bowl. Spoon the cheese mixture down the center of the dough, leaving a 2 inch border on all sides.

Cut the dough edges into 1 inch strips on each side. Fold the strips over the cheese, pinching the ends to form a boat shape with a well in the middle.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly. Remove from oven and make a well in the center of the cheese.

Crack the 1 egg into the well and return to the oven for 3-4 minutes, until the egg white is set but yolk is still runny. Top with 2 tbsp butter and serve hot.
