bread dough

🥗Healthier: whole wheat dough

💰Cheaper: store-bought dough

Whole wheat adds fiber, while store-bought saves time.

Prepare the bread dough and let it rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Cook bacon in a skillet until crispy, then remove and drain on paper towels.

Sauté onion, bell pepper, and garlic in the bacon fat until softened, about 5 minutes.

Mix the sautéed vegetables with chopped ham, olives, raisins, and cooked bacon in a bowl.

Roll out the risen dough into a rectangle on a floured surface.

Spread the filling mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a border.

Roll the dough tightly from one end to the other, sealing the edges.

Place the rolled dough seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Brush the top with beaten egg for a golden finish.

Let the dough rise again for about 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Bake the ham bread for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.

Cool on a wire rack before slicing.
