Bacon Lattice Apple Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine the apples flour, apple pie spice, lemon zest, 1/2 cup of the sugar and 1 tablespoon of the maple syrup in a large bowl. Mix together to thoroughly coat the apples.
• Transfer the apple mixture into the pie crust. It will be mounded slightly above the edge. Pack the apples down to create an even layer for the bacon lattice.
• Place 6 slices of bacon horizontally across the pie. The edges of each slice should touch, but not overlap. Working with the remaining 6 slices, weave the bacon in an over-under pattern to evenly cover the top of the pie. This should be done by lifting alternating slices of the horizontal bacon and vertically placing a slice of bacon over or under as needed to create a woven design. Use kitchen shears to trim the bacon that hangs over the edge of the pie tin, making sure the bacon covers the rim of the pastry because it will pull back as it bakes.
• Cover the pie with aluminum foil, place it on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 tablespoon maple syrup in a small bowl. Stir in the vinegar and sprinkle with a generous pinch of black pepper. Set aside.
• After the pie has baked 25 minutes, remove the foil and gently brush the bacon lattice with the maple glaze. Return the pie to the oven and continue baking, uncovered, until the bacon is brown and crispy and the apple mixture is bubbly, about 35 minutes more. Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing. Serve with whipped cream if using.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Arrange 5 strips of the bacon in parallel rows on a baking sheet lined with parchment, the edges of the slices touching but not overlapping. Working with 1 strip at a time, arrange the remaining strips perpendicular to the first ones, weaving the strips over and under to form a lattice.
• Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray. Roll the puff pastry into a 12-inch square and press into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared dish. Trim the edges that overhang with a paring knife. Whisk the eggs, half-and-half, cheese, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a large bowl until well combined. Pour into the puff pastry shell. Bake the bacon lattice and the eggs until the bacon is just starting to crisp and the eggs are still jiggly in the center but slightly set, about 15 minutes.
• Use two spatulas to lift the bacon lattice and place it on top of the eggs. Continue baking until the bacon is golden brown and crisp and the eggs are set, about 25 minutes. The eggs will be very puffy (they will deflate as the pie rests). Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Mix apple pie filling, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice in a bowl and pour into pie crust (in a pie pan or tin). Smooth with a spatula.
• Create bacon weave on top of pie: Lay two strips across the pie so that they intersect in the middle and are at right angles. Turn the pie so that the lower strip points toward you. Continue adding more bacon to the left and the right, creating an alternating over-under pattern with the single strip that runs side-to-side.
• At this point, there should five or six strips of bacon pointing toward the front of the pie and one strip running side-to-side which weaves over and under the other five or six strips.
• Begin laying a strip of bacon next to the on running side-to-side. Start at one end and create an over-under pattern opposite the first one by lifting up alternating strips, laying this piece down, and replacing the strips you lifted. Continue on both sides until the pie is completely covered in a bacon lattice with an alternating over-under weave.
• Trim the ends that hang over the sides. Save these trimmings for use in recipes that call for diced bacon (you can freeze them).
• Bake 45-60 minutes, or until bacon is crispy and completely cooked. You may want to bake this over a baking sheet in case apple or bacon grease ooze over the sides.
• Cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve with caramel praline, dulce de leche, or similar ice cream. If desired, you can cooked up the bacon trimmings and garnish the ice cream with them.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C)
• Add eggs to the bowl.
• In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
• Add in the green onions and cheddar, and mix again.
• Pour the egg mixture into the pie crust and bake for 35-40 minutes or until set.
• Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C).
• Lay the bacon on top of the pie and weave to make a lattice top.
• Bake again for 20 minutes or until bacon is crispy. Broil for crispier bacon.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice apples.In a large bowl, toss the apples with the brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, & nutmeg. Fill pie shell with apple mixture.
• 2. 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.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Spray pie pan with a little nonstick spray.
• Place both pie crusts on top of each other and roll to form one large crust, about an inch larger than your deep dish pie pan. Place rolled dough in pie pan by rolling dough in rolling pin and then transferring it to pie pan. Decorate edges as desired.
• Mix apple pie filling, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice in a large bowl and pour into pie crust in pan. Smooth with a spatula.
• To create bacon weave on top of pie:.
• Lay six strips on pie. Fold back every other one. Place one strip of bacon going perpendicular to laid bacon. Fold over the strips that were folded back. Then fold back alternating strips. Add another strip of bacon and fold over folded strips. Repeat until you reach the other edge.
• Tuck in bacon at end with toothpick or just let it hang loose. Bacon will shrink as it bakes.
• Place on sheet tray and bake for about 50-60 minutes or until bacon is crispy and completely cooked and crust is golden brown.
• Cool for an hour or until filling is completely set. serve with whipped cream, ice cream, or caramel if desired.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the apples, sugar, water, tapioca, cinnamon and nutmeg; toss to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes., In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt; cut in shortening until crumbly. Gradually add water, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Divide in half, making one half slightly larger. , On a lightly floured surface, roll out larger portion of pastry to fit a 9-in. pie plate. Transfer pastry to plate; trim even with edge of plate. Add filling; dot with butter. Roll out remaining pastry; make a lattice crust. , Trim, seal and flute edges. Brush with milk; sprinkle with sugar. Cover edges loosely with foil., Bake at 400° for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°; bake 40-50 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool on a wire rack.
