Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with a bit of olive oil or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Once cooked, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to cool. Once cooled, crumble into small pieces and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
In another bowl, whisk together the dairy-free milk, olive oil, and eggs until well combined.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture gradually, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in a dense bread.
Fold in the crumbled bacon, chopped chives, and minced garlic. Add black pepper to taste.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice and serve. Enjoy your Dairy-Free Savory Bacon Bread as a delightful breakfast option or a satisfying snack!
