Apple Bacon Dinner Pie - recipe theme pie



I figure by this time of the month, you are sick of fruit pie, so I thought a dinner pie might be a nice change.  This one uses apple, which is perfect for November, but also includes blue cheese and bacon.  You know what they say, everything is better with bacon.  The herbs are a savory mix that enhances and supports apple and bacon flavors.


Apple Bacon Dinner Pie

6 slices bacon

1 (8 1/2-ounce) package corn muffin mix

2/3 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon savory
1 teaspoon marjoram

1 egg, lightly beaten

1/4 cup 2 % reduced-fat milk

2 large Granny Smith apples, cored and thinly sliced

1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese



Directions

Preheat oven to 400F. Lightly grease 2 baking sheets.



Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels. Reserve drippings, and coarsely crumble bacon when cool enough to handle.


Combine muffin mix, flour, paprika, egg and milk; stir well to form a dough. Divide into 4 portions, and put 2 portions on each of the prepared pans. Press into 7-inch circles with your fingers.



Top each dough circle with a layer of apple slices, leaving a 1-inch border. Fold edges roughly around outer edges of apple slices. Brush apples and crust with bacon drippings. Bake 10 minutes. Top with blue cheese and crumbled bacon. Bake 7 minutes longer or until edges are golden brown. Cut into halves and serve warm. Serves 8.
