Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to (195°F) 350°F.
  2. Sauté the bacon until crisp on both sides. Remove from pan and set aside, leaving the grease behind.
  3. Add the apples to the pan and cook with cinnamon for about 5 minutes, until they’re golden brown.
  4. Whisk the eggs, flour, coconut milk, baking soda, and sea salt in a large bowl.
  5. Distribute the egg mixture and apple mixture evenly in a standard muffin tin. Crumble the bacon evenly into the tins as well.

  7. Let rest for about 10 minutes. Enjoy immediately or store in a tin and refrigerate.
