Strukel (an easter tradition)

[polamalufan43]

A recipe that was my great-grandma's. It's kind of a German Family thing, but it's really really good. It's meant to feed a large number of people, so don't be surprised if the size is large.

1 tsp baking powder
1 doz eggs
2 loaves of cubed bread
2 lbs slab bacon cubed (or thick sliced)
4 big 1 inch slice ham cubed
Enough water to make texture of sticky stuffing
(optional) ground pepper(add to taste)
13 x 9 oblong glass dish

Cut up bread and put in a large bowl. Add Eggs(2 at a time) and fluff with hands. Add baking powder and pepper and fluff again. Add bacon and Ham and add water slowly until moist. Spray dish with Pam Cooking Spray and take a wet cloth and pat down. Bake at 350degrees for 1 hr uncovered. Suck up juices with baster and distribute all over.

LOL,

I might want to mention that not to be afraid to pack everything into that pan. Just try not to smush.

Yeah, just downsize the recipe, oh and it may seem like alot, but once you add everything it shrinks, like after you add the eggs to the bread.
