Advice:
Choose yellow-fleshed potatoes, they hold cooking better and make the pie’s interior creamier.
Bacon can be sweet or smoked, cubed or sliced, depending on how much flavor you want to add.
You can prepare this baked potato pie in advance, store it in the fridge and heat it up when needed.
If you want a lighter version, you can reduce the bacon and add zucchini or onion, without altering the basic recipe.
