Flaeskeaeggekage is a classic Danish dish that combines the flavors of bacon and eggs in a savory pancake-omelet. The dish is easy to prepare and can be served for breakfast, brunch, or even as a quick and easy dinner option. The use of flour in the recipe gives the pancake-omelet a slightly thicker texture that is similar to a quiche, while the addition of chives adds a subtle onion flavor that complements the salty bacon. The dish is typically served with a side of fresh fruit or a simple green salad to balance out the richness of the eggs and bacon.

Instructions

1.	Preheat oven to 400°F.
2.	Place bacon in a 9-inch ovenproof skillet and cook over medium heat until crisp.
3.	Use a slotted spoon to transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate.
4.	In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, flour, and salt until well combined. Stir in chives and cooked bacon.
5.	Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and transfer to the oven.
6.	Bake until the pancake-omelet is puffed and golden, about 20-25 minutes.
7.	Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
