1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced.
• Thinly slice spring onion.
• Pick thyme leaves.
• In a small bowl, whisk the egg.

2

In a large bowl, combine basic sponge mix, Greek-style yoghurt, the water, salt, Cheddar cheese, thyme leaves, half the Parmesan cheese, half the spring onion, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Lightly dust a work surface with a generous pinch of plain flour.
Tip out dough and knead until smooth, 2-3 minutes. Cover and set aside.

TIP: If the dough is too sticky, add extra pinches of flour while kneading!

3

Divide dough into 28 pieces, forming them into equal sized balls.

4

Place balls on an oven tray lined with baking paper,
in the shape of a Christmas tree (the balls should be
just touching).

5

Brush some egg wash on dough balls and bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
In the last 5 minutes of cook time, sprinkle with diced bacon and bake, until golden.
