The flour is the biggest question mark.

There is never any flour inside the egg when it’s laid.

OK, but it's still recommended to properly handle eggs, too. It's not like it's difficult to pasteurize eggs. You need a pot of water, a stove, and a thermometer.

The egg is only there to help bind it while it bakes so the butter doesn'tmelt and turn it into goo. If you are going to eat the dough just leave out the egg, it doesn't do anything.

You can eat raw eggs. Raw flour is the question mark.

If your egg is clean on the outside where does the bad bacteria come from? Because its not from inside the egg.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Don't shoot the messenger.

While most bacteria including Salmonella are found on the shell itself, Salmonella can sometimes get inside an egg or it can already be inside an egg when it is laid.
