Bacon apple pie.

*assumes Joe Biden voice* Now, I’m gonna say that again.

Bacon. Apple. Pie.

I saw that site a few months ago and that idea had been crawling around the back of my head ever since then. Since I recently bought not only this turn-crank apple corer/slicer/peeler (which is fabulous in its own right; not only does it now take only 30 seconds to prepare an apple for pie, I get to feel like a medieval dungeon master while I’m doing it), but also some smoked cinnamon bacon, I decided that this recipe was perfect for its maiden voyage.

End verdict: YES. The smoky and salty flavors of the bacon go really well with the tangy/sweet apples, and the crust is crispy and flaky (if I may toot my own horn here for a minute). Scott doesn’t really like it, not being big on the whole sweet/salty combination, but I think I’m set on breakfast for the next week and a half or so.
