( This is an extra step, but I don’t recommend cooking the raw bacon lattice directly on top of the mac pie because it will make the pie too greasy! It’s best to top the finished pie with the crispy lattice top and give it a few minutes together in the oven at the end so they can get to know each other!) On a baking sheet, weave the bacon into a lattice square.just like on a regular pie! Bake the Bacon Lattice separately in the oven until it’s crispy! While the mac is boiling.prepare the Bacon lattice topper!
#Easy macaroni and cheese pie with bacon lattice crack
Just looking at this over-the-top brunch winner is enough to bring joy to any gathering, and make you the talk of the town.īut.then, when you crack through the gorgeous crispy latticed bacon top, and sink down deep into the layers of 3, yes 3 cheeses, through the tender Mac.and into the flaky Filo crusted bottom.you’re sent to another dimension of food euphoria!Ĭook the Macaroni according to the directions…set aside. Slice by warm, rich, cheesy, bacony latticed slice! 😉 I also put together the lattice top (this time using Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Bacon) at the same time and put it in the oven along with the crust so that when the macaroni and cheese was done cooking on the stove I could fill the mostly cooked bacon crust with it, add some breadcrumbs, cover it with the lattice top and then throw it back in the oven to finish old Pie~ Flaky crust, gooey middle…pretty lattice topped Pie!! With all the bells and whistles that make up America’s favorite treat.īut you won’t find any apples and ice cream anywhere near this pie.Nope! This pie is filled with America’s favorite comfort food! ~Yep.Mac-n-Cheese! Now you can enjoy your tasty comfort in the most unique and entertaining way EVER.
I then flipped the bacon weave into a pie tin and patted it down before placing another pie tin on top of it so it would keep its shape when cooking. To create the bacon crust I took a pound of Nueske’s Thick-Sliced Peppered Bacon and created a bacon weave on a sheet of aluminum foil. Without him and the help I got from my wife this creation of mine probably would have turned into a huge burnt disaster, but thanks to them it actually turned out perfectly. I’m far from great when it comes to cooking, so the bacon crust was a little challenging, but luckily my buddy Jeff from helped me out with plenty of cooking tips. I’ve also noticed that their bacon seems to shrink a lot less than most other bacon when you cook it, which is essential when you don’t want any open gaps between the bacon slices in your bacon pie crust. I wanted to stick with a Wisconsin theme so I chose Nueske’s, which has been providing the world with delicious meats since 1933. When it came time for me to decide which bacon to use for my dish it was a no-brainer. Using an actual pie crust seemed a little too easy however, so I decided to make the pie crust itself out of bacon, fill it with macaroni and Colby Jack cheese and then use even more bacon to create a lattice top, similar to what you often see with traditional pies. They asked me specifically for a “DudeFoods inspired” macaroni and cheese recipe and one of the first ideas that came to my mind was a macaroni and cheese pie with bacon.
When the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board asked me to be a part of their second annual 30 Days, 30 Ways Macaroni & Cheese Blog to celebrate National Cheese Lover’s Day I immediately jumped at the opportunity. It’s one of those dishes that even people who are terrible at cooking can whip up with no problem at all. I love how something so simple can be so delicious. Macaroni and cheese is one of my favorite foods.
