Cheese-Filled Adjarian Khachapuri with Egg

Fragrant and tasty khachapuri with the addition of eggs! I have always liked khachapuri — these are Georgian pies with cheese (translated as “bread with cheese” or “cheese bread”), usually they are closed, but Adjarian khachapuri is open. A great option for a hearty snack!
