4
slices bacon
-
1
8 1/2 ounce package corn muffin mix
-
1/2
cup all-purpose flour
-
1
teaspoon chili powder
-
1
egg, lightly beaten
-
1/4
cup milk
-
1/3
cup blue cheese crumbles
-
1
large Golden Delicious apple, cored and thinly sliced
-
Fresh thyme (optional)
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease two baking sheets or line with parchment paper; set aside. In a skillet cook bacon until crisp. Drain; reserve 2 tablespoons drippings. Chop bacon.
2. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl combine muffin mix, flour, chili powder, egg, and milk with a fork. Use your hands to knead dough until it comes together. Divide dough into four portions. Place two portions on each prepared baking sheet and press to 6-inch circles using floured hands.
3. Top each circle with half of the cheese and a layer of apple slices, leaving a 1-inch border. Fold edges around apple slices, using floured hands if necessary. Brush apples and crust with 1 to 2 tablespoons reserved bacon drippings.
4. Place baking sheets on separate oven racks. Bake for 10 minutes. Top each pie with remaining blue cheese and the bacon; return to separate racks and bake for 5 to 7 minutes more until edges are golden. If desired, sprinkle with thyme.

I thought the flavor combination was good, however, it was way too dry. Definitely needs some type of sauce or dressing.

1/20/2011 01:38:13 PM Report AbuseThis was terrible! I gave the recipe the benefit of the doubt because it looks so nice in the photos and I thought the mix of blue cheese, bacon and apples would be delightful. However, it was very disappointing; extremely dry and had a very unpleasant taste. I will never make this again.
