Time 45m

Yield 2 pies

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 eggs
1 large potato, peeled
4 slices applewood smoked bacon
1/3 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
4 cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 white onion, sliced
2 (14 1/8 ounce) packages 9-inch refrigerated pie crusts (each package should hold two crusts)
1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Boil the potato until it's soft and then drain and cut it into slices. Set aside.
  • Fry the bacon slices until slightly crispy and then drain on a paper towel. Break into small pieces. Set aside. Using the same pan, fry the onions on a medium heat for 5 minutes. Drain and set side.
  • Beat one egg with a fork and set aside to use as egg wash.
  • Open one package of pie dough and lay each pie dough on lightly floured work surface. Using one (4 x 5 inch) pie tin, place the pie tin on each pastry dough and cut a slightly larger circle around it. This is the top crust. Discard excess dough.
  • Lightly grease 2 (4 x 5 inch) pie tins. Open the second package of pie dough and gently press 1 pastry circle into the bottom of each pie tin. Press the dough up the sides and around the rim.
  • Line each pie with a slice of potato, then a layer of bacon and onion. Sprinkle on the cheese and add several tomato pieces. Crack 2 eggs into each pie.
  • Brush the rim with egg wash. Cover each pie with the top crust and push it down with your fingers.
  • Brush the top with more egg wash. Press around the rim of each pie with the back of a fork to seal.
  • Using a sharp knife, make a small incision in the top of each pie to allow for steam to escape. Sprinkle on some sesame seeds.
  • Bake in the oven for 12 minutes. Serve hot or cold with tomato sauce.
