Ingredients

4 servings

  • 18 ounces refrigerated French bread dough
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
  • 1 medium potato, thinly sliced (Optional)
  • 3 slices smoked bacon
  • ¼ cup butter
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • ¾ cup light cream
  • 1 pinch ground nutmeg
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Roll out the bread dough into a rectangle, and spread out on a baking sheet greased with olive oil. Set aside.
  • Place potato slices in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 5 minutes. Add bacon slices to the water, and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Drain. Remove bacon, then dice.
  • While the potatoes and bacon cook, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, and cook, stirring until tender. Remove from heat and stir in cream; season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
  • Spread the onion mixture over the bread dough. Arrange potato slices evenly, and sprinkle with bacon.
  • Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until crust is golden on the bottom. Let stand for a few minutes before slicing.
