Today’s Culinary Invention: Smoky Maple Glazed Bacon Apple Pie

Hey there, foodies! Today I’m excited to share a unique and delicious recipe that combines savory and sweet flavors in a way you’ve never experienced before. This Smoky Maple Glazed Bacon Apple Pie is perfect for those cozy fall evenings when you’re craving something comforting and indulgent.

To make this mouthwatering pie, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 8 slices of bacon
  • 3 Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp butter, diced
  • 1 store-bought pie crust

Before getting started, make sure you have these kitchen tools on hand:

  • rolling pin
  • pastry brush
  • pie dish

To begin, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set it aside on paper towels to drain. In the same skillet, add the sliced apples, maple syrup, smoked paprika, and cinnamon. Cook until the apples are tender, then remove from heat and stir in the diced butter until melted.

Next, unroll the pie crust and place it in your pie dish. Crumble the cooked bacon on top of the crust, then spoon the apple mixture over the bacon. Fold the edges of the crust over the filling, creating a rustic look. Brush the crust with any leftover bacon grease for added flavor.

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.

This Smoky Maple Glazed Bacon Apple Pie weighs approximately 1200 grams after cooking and serves 8 people. Each serving is around 150 grams and contains approximately 350 calories.

For a unique twist on this recipe, try adding a handful of shredded cheddar cheese on top before baking. The salty cheese pairs perfectly with the sweet and smoky flavors of the pie, taking it to the next level of deliciousness.

I hope you enjoy making and eating this Smoky Maple Glazed Bacon Apple Pie as much as I do. Feel free to get creative and make it your own by experimenting with different types of apples or adding your favorite spices. Happy baking!
