 Bacon Apple Pie |  | | Easy as can be and deeee-lish! |
| Directions | Preheat the oven to 350 F. Spread the pie crust in a 9? pie pan and leave the overhanging edges. Sprinkle the bacon crumbles over the crust.
Mix together the apple slices, brown sugar, nutmeg, cloves, cornstarch and scotch. Spread over the bacon in the pie crust. Pour the maple syrup evenly over the apples.
Arrange the strips of bacon over the top of the pie crust in a lattice, then fold the edges of the pie crust over the bacon and crimp.
Bake for about an hour, until the bacon on top is nicely crisp, the crust is browned and a knife pushes easily into an apple slice. (Happily, these should all happen at roughly the same time.) |
