Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Blind Bake the Crust - Large Pan Instructions
6
Place a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet. Roll out the dough in a large circular round. Loosely roll the dough around the rolling pin to help aid you in molding the dough into the ring. Take care not to leave any cracks.
7
Blind bake this crust. Lay a sheet of parchment paper over the dough, and then fill the shell with dry beans or rice. You can purchase fancy pie baking weights, but they aren't necessary. Bake this crust for about 15 to ⏱️ 20 minutes.

Do not let the crust get too brown. Remove from oven, and let cool slightly before adding the cheese, ham slices, and bacon.
