Ingredients
For the Dough:
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 cup ice water
- Pinch salt
- 10 ounces butter
- 5 tablespoons warm rendered bacon fat
- 1/2 cup finely grated cheddar cheese
For the Filling:
- 1 pound cubed applewood smoked bacon
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 cup apple juice
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 8 Harry & David Honey Crisp Apples cut into eighths
- 2 ounces butter
For the Cheddar Cheese Lid:
- 1 cup finely grated cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
For the Dough:
- Combine flour, sugar, water and salt and mix slowly in a stand mixer. While mixing, slowly add butter, bacon fat and cheese until one cohesive mixture is formed. Let cool. Using a rolling pin, roll pie crust about 1/4-inch thick and place in a greased 11” pie tin. Fill with butcher paper and beans and par-bake in a preheated 350-degree oven until cooked. Approximately 20 minutes.
For the Filling:
- Briefly sauté cubed bacon in a hot skillet. Add honey, apple juice and vinegar. Bring to a simmer. Cook bacon until tender, 45 minutes low and slow. When tender, remove bacon from liquid and reduce until syrup consistency. Add Harry & David Honey Crisp Apples and butter and cook until golden and tender. Return bacon. Mix and let cool. Place in pre-baked pie shell.
For the Lid:
- Mix cheddar and Parmesan cheese and sprinkle a light layer on a silicon baking mat. Bake in the oven until melted and partially caramelized. Remove from oven. While cooling, cut a 14” diameter circle from the baked cheese. Once slightly cooled, remove from baking mat and gently drape over the top of the filling. Crimp sides to close.
To Serve:
- Place pie back in oven for 5 minutes to warm through. Slice and serve.
