I didn't realize there was such a thing, but apparently there is. Someone was talking about a bacon and apple pie.
Anyone heard of such a thing? Sounds like the fitting ending to a BLT meal :-)
Yum, it does sound good Sio! Let's see where to get one! Maybe at Willows Cheese Cafe. You would definitely need a slab of cheddar to eat w/this!

If HM wasn't sick, she would be all over this one. And look - you serve it with cheese!!!!
Bacon Apple Pie
Ingredients:
* Pastry for 9-inch pie, uncooked
* 6 cups apples, peeled and cut into thin slices (about 2 1/4 lbs or 8 medium apples)
* 3/4 lb uncooked bacon
* 3/4 cup sugar
* 2 Tbl flour
* 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
* 1/4 tsp nutmeg
* 1 Tbl milk
* 1 Tbl sugar
Directions:
Fry bacon in skillet until slightly floppy. Drain on paper towel. Chop bacon into 1/2″ pieces. Line bottom of pastry-lined pie plate with a layer of bacon, reserving the rest.
In a large bowl, mix together 3/4 cup sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add apple slices and remaining bacon pieces. Toss to coat.
Transfer bacon-apple mixture to pastry-lined pie plate. Place upper crust on pie plate (bonus points for a lattice, double bonus points if you can show me a bacon lattice!) and seal. Cut slits in the top if you are using double crust to allow to vent. Brush top with milk and sugar. Bake at 375 F for 1 hour or until bubbly.
Cool on a wire rack. Serve with smoked cheddar cheese slices.

I have made the bacon lattice and it is wonderful. You cane make it sandwich size and then put w/cheese slice and make a grilled cheese/bacon sandwich. So good. HM might know the site we got it from, but I can't wait, just throw the top crust on!!! Oh boy! *drooling heavily now*

Sorry about HM, didn't realize she was sick but I sure miss her. I was about to put out an APB on her!
