Bacon Lattice Breakfast Pie

Directions

Now, let’s dive into the cooking process:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Roll out the pie crust and carefully place it into a greased 9-inch pie dish, trimming any excess dough from the edges.
3. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
5. Crumble the cooked bacon and sprinkle it evenly over the bottom of the pie crust. Top with shredded cheddar cheese.
6. Pour the egg mixture over the bacon and cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
7. Create a lattice pattern on top of the pie by arranging the remaining bacon slices in a crisscross pattern.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the crust is golden brown.
9. Garnish with chopped fresh chives, if desired, and serve hot.
