Recipe:

Dough -

• 1 cups Flour
  
• 1/2 tsp. Salt
  
• 1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
  
• 1/8 cup Cold Milk
  

Pie Filling -

• 4 Eggs
  
• 1 tbsp. Milk
  
• 1/2 Grated Cheese
  
• 4 Strips Bacon
  
• 1 cup Chopped Cooked Ham
  
• 1 tsp. Parsley
  
• Salt and Pepper to taste
  

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the oil and milk to the flour/salt mixture. Mix briskly to combine until the dough comes together into a ball.

Roll out the dough to 1/8 inch thick between 2 sheets of wax paper. Fold pastry into quarter folds and ease into pie plate, pressing firmly against bottom and sides of pie plate.

Beat eggs and milk together in a medium bowl. Mix in the cheese, parsley, and salt and pepper. Cook the bacon, chop, and add to egg mixture. Add the ham. Pour the egg mixture into pie crust. Bake for 30 minutes.

Baking Tips:

• Because the pastry dough is made with oil, it must be used right away. After a day in the refrigerator, the oil will start to separate and seep out.
