Breakfast for Dinner Pie
1 frozen deep-dish pie shell
6 slices reduced salt bacon, coarsely chopped
30 ml (2 tbsp) maple syrup
5 fully cooked sausage rounds
125 ml (1/2 cup) shredded cheddar cheese
5 large eggs
125 ml (1/2 cup) 2 per cent milk
Salt and pepper, to taste
Preheat oven to 200 C (400 F). Bake pie shell according to package directions for a baked pie shell. Set aside. Reduce temperature to 180 C (350 F).
In a skillet, fry bacon until crispy, remove from pan and drain on paper towels. Toss with maple syrup and set aside.
Heat sausage patties according to package directions and place on bottom of baked pie shell. Top with shredded cheese and half the bacon.
In a bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into pie shell.
Bake in a 180 C (350 F) oven for 30 minutes until filling is almost set. Sprinkle with remaining bacon and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes or until egg mixture has completely set. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
Makes 6 to 8 servings.
