Made this with my friends. It was DELICIOUS. I little slice of heaven! Soooo rich. I think next time I'll skip adding the cheddar to the recipe as I feel like it didn't add much except make it super duper rich. However the bacon in the recipe comes out sooooo flavorful. I will be making this again! :)

I am so glad you enjoyed the pie! I agree about the cheese. I think next time I will use an extra sharp cheddar to get the flavor across.

Looks amazing. In the Pictures, it looked like the cinnamon covered apples were potatoes and the bacon crumble sprinkle was ground beef or something. That might be a variation I will have to try. Like a meat and cheese pie would be delicious I think. Sweet 'Ible!

I agree! A cheddar, potato, bacon pie would make an excellent breakfast! Throw in some mushroom, onions, green peppers and spinach and you are golden! :-)
