Preheat oven to 450 ºF. Cut bread in half horizontally. Place bread halves, cut side up, on separate baking sheets. Mix onions and 6 tbsp oil in small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve 2 tbsp olive oil and spread remaining oil over the bread. Top with cheese.

Sauté sausage in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until cooked through, breaking up with spoon, about 7 minutes. Divide sausage among bread halves.

Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let eggs stand in skillets while pizza bakes. Arrange 4 eggs atop each pizza. Spoon reserve olive oil over eggs.
