Instead of a full-coverage bacon lattice, I’d go a bit more sparingly on top, maybe weave in some pastry lattice work alternating with the bacon? If the amount of bacon on the top is reduced, I’ add chopped bacon and a handful of 1/2″ cubes of some fancy medium cheddar cheese to the pie itself.

Thanks for tip! I thought the season was pretty much over. (Also, I noticed Saturday that Welles park has a bunch of crabapple trees by the playground. I definitely plan to remember that for next year.)

There are a bunch of fallen apples on Rockwell between Gunnison and Argyle, if you’re still foraging!

I’d add candied bacon to the mix, either as a sprinkle topping or as an ingredient in the crust or mix. To make candied bacon, microwave till about 1/4 cooked, drain fat, sover a backing sheet in brown sugar, layer on the 1/4 cooked bacon, cover with brown sugar, bake in the oven until bacon is fully cooked, cool on baking rack and then snap apart to small candied bits.

I hope the Eli’s Crack Brownie pan still comes in handy.

cover the bacon in brown sugar and you will need to incorporate eggs into the apple mix. i think you were originally trying for a dessert pie, but it should be a breakfast pie.

Yeah, yeah. (Just kidding.) Anyway, your urban foraging adventures are interesting!
