Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a medium-sized baking dish (approx. 20x20cm) with butter.

In a frying pan, cook the chopped bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.
⏱️ 8-10 minutes - 3
Add the chopped onion to the bacon fat in the pan and sauté until softened and translucent.

Slice the Blaa rolls in half horizontally. Arrange half of the Blaa halves in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Scatter the cooked bacon and sautéed onions over the Blaa halves in the dish.

In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, half of the grated cheese, chopped chives, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Pour about half of the egg mixture over the bacon and onion layer.

Arrange the remaining Blaa halves on top, then pour the rest of the egg mixture evenly over the entire dish.
