Maple Glazed Bacon Apple Pie

Today, I’m excited to share with you a unique seasonal fusion recipe that combines the sweet and savory flavors of fall in a delightful dessert: Maple Glazed Bacon Apple Pie. This unexpected twist on a classic apple pie will surely impress your friends and family at any gathering.

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

• 6 slices of bacon
• 4 medium apples, peeled and sliced
• 1/2 cup of maple syrup
• 1/4 cup of brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup of butter, cut into small cubes
• 1 pre-made pie crust

Before you begin, make sure you have the following kitchen tools ready:

• mixing bowl
• pie dish
• frying pan
• rolling pin

To start, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a frying pan, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan and chop it into small pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, maple syrup, brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour. Mix everything together until the apples are coated evenly.

Place the pie crust in the pie dish, then add the apple mixture on top. Sprinkle the bacon pieces over the apples and dot the top with the cubed butter. Cover the pie with the second pie crust and pinch the edges to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.

This Maple Glazed Bacon Apple Pie weighs approximately 1200 grams and serves 8 people. Each serving is around 150 grams, with an estimated calorie count of 350 per serving.

One tip to enhance the flavor of this pie is to brush the top crust with a little extra maple syrup before baking. This will add a beautiful shine and extra sweetness to the finished dessert.

I hope you enjoy making and sharing this Maple Glazed Bacon Apple Pie with your loved ones. Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite apples or by adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top for a tasty contrast. Happy baking!
