Equipment
- Skillet
- 2 baking sheets
Ingredients
Crescent Dough:
- 400 grams freshly milled flour*, (2 1/4 cups of grain that I mixed with half hard white and soft white wheat) makes about 3 1/2 cups flour
- 1 Tbsp organic cane sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 Tbsp dry active yeast
- 2/3 cup palm fruit shortening
- 1 cup warm water
Filling:
- 6 eggs, (scrambled with 3 T milk and pepper to taste)
- 8 Tbsp bacon bits, (or 5 strips of cooked bacon, chopped)
- 12 slices American cheese
- 8 slices ham
- 1 beaten egg, (for egg wash)
- 2 Tbsp sesame seeds, (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line two baking sheets with silicone mats and set aside.
Instructions:
- Make the crescent dough: mix together all of the dough ingredients in a medium bowl until soft and the flour is well incorporated.
- Cut the dough in half and roll out each piece of dough into a 13x11 rectangle. Cut each rectangle into fours to make 8 large squares total.
- Layer each square with 1 1/2 slices of American cheese, 1 slice of ham, 1 Tbsp bacon bits, and 1 heaping Tbsp of scrambled eggs.
- Fold the top over the filling and pinch the edges shut forming a pocket.
- Brush each pocket with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and internal temperature reads 160°F. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
**Freshly milled flour, use half of hard white wheat and half of soft white wheat to make the whole wheat flour. This will create more of a crispy pastry dough. You can also mill all hard white wheat and knead well for a soft pizza dough texture.
