Ingredients

Method

1
Activate the yeast by crumbling it into 1/4 cup warm water and letting it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
2
Combine the activated yeast mixture with 3 cups flour and 1 tablespoon salt, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

While the dough rises, cube the bacon and cook it in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon, leaving 1-2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the pan.

Finely chop the ham slice and slice the green onions into small pieces. Set aside with the cooked bacon.

Punch down the risen dough and press it into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, creating an even bottom layer.

Pour the egg and cheese mixture evenly over the dough base, spreading it to the edges.
