PREPARATION

How to Make the Crust

Follow the steps in the dependent recipe.

Roll dough flat to desired thinness and using a 3.2"-3.5" round cutter, cut our dough rounds.

Using olive oil, brush each muffin tin slot with olive oil, making sure all areas are covered so the dough does not stick.

Press each round down in a slot, making sure the dough covers all areas of the muffin tin slot.

Preparing the Filling

Preheat oven to 375 F. In a bowl, mix together the eggs and the cheese. If the eggs are medium in size, you can use 1-3 more.

Cut each strip of bacon into ~2-3 inch slices and line each muffin tin slot with ~6 pieces of bacon, making sure to cover the entire outside.

Fill each slot with egg and cheese mixture 3/4 full, making sure to leave a little bit of room for expansion during cooking.

Baking the Muffins

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and cook for 15 minutes.

10.

Check after 15 minutes to make sure bacon and egg mixture is cooked. If not, you can bake in 5 minute increments until all is fully cooked.
