Step 1
Cook bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crispy, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate and chop.
Step 2
Pour off all but 1 tsp bacon fat. Crack eggs into the same skillet and scramble over medium heat until just set, 3-4 minutes.
Step 3
Toss scrambled eggs with soy sauce, sesame oil, white pepper, and half the scallions off the heat.
Step 4
Warm bao in the microwave for 45 seconds or place cut-side down in the hot skillet for 30 seconds per side.
Step 5
Divide egg mixture and bacon between bao. Top with remaining scallions. Serve immediately.
