German Bacon and Onion Tart

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450°F. Roll out the 1 lb pizza dough on a floured surface into a thin rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick.

Step 2

Transfer dough to a baking sheet. Brush with 1 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.

Step 3

Cook 6 slices bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 6 minutes. Remove and crumble, reserving 1 tbsp drippings.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add 2 sliced onions and cook over medium until soft and golden, about 8 minutes.

Step 5

Spread the onions over the dough, then scatter the crumbled bacon and 1.5 cups shredded cheese evenly on top.

Step 6

Bake until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly, about 12-15 minutes.

Step 7

Garnish with 2 tbsp chopped chives, slice, and serve warm.
