Discover the rustic charm of this hearty Potato Bacon & Egg Pie, a perfect weekend lunch that's as satisfying as it is delicious. Thinly sliced Yukon Gold potatoes are layered with smoky bacon pieces and hard-cooked eggs, all encased in a buttery, flaky homemade crust. The crème fraîche adds a subtle tanginess that perfectly complements the savory filling. This impressive pie requires some advance preparation but rewards you with a showstopping dish that pairs beautifully with a simple green salad. - Claude

Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
1 tsp kosher salt, divided
2 large egg yolks, divided
1/4 cup ice water, as needed
1 1/4 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (about 4 cups)

(continued in the next column ↗️)

1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 tsp black pepper
5 oz thick-cut mild-smoked bacon slices, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
1/2 cup crème fraîche or sour cream
3 large or 4 small hard-cooked eggs, peeled and thinly sliced
1 tsp water
Directions
Stir together flour, butter, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
Using your fingertips, rub butter into flour mixture until mixture resembles coarse meal.
Make a well in center.
Stir together 1 egg yolk with enough ice water to equal 1/4 cup; pour into well, and stir into flour mixture until just moistened.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
Knead dough just until it comes together.
Divide dough into 2 disks.
Wrap each disk in plastic wrap, and chill at least 8 hours or overnight.
 
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Unwrap 1 dough disk, and roll into a 13-inch round on a lightly floured surface; fit into a 9-inch pie pan.
Chill 10 minutes.
 
Meanwhile, soak potato slices in ice water to cover (to remove surface starch) about 5 minutes; drain and pat slices dry.
Toss potatoes with parsley, pepper, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Place bacon in a large skillet, and cook over medium-high, stirring occasionally, until wilted and just browned on edges, about 2 minutes.
Drain bacon on paper towels.
 
Arrange half of potato slices in refrigerated pie shell, overlapping slices.
Sprinkle evenly with bacon; top with remaining potato slices, overlapping slices.
Spread crème fraîche over potatoes, and arrange egg slices on top.
Unwrap remaining dough disk, and roll into a 10-inch round on a lightly floured surface.
Place round on top of pie.
Trim edges and fold dough under.
Crimp edge as desired.
Using the tip of a knife, prick top of pie twice.
 
Stir together 1 teaspoon water and remaining egg yolk; brush over top of pie.
Bake pie in preheated oven on middle rack 20 minutes; reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C), and bake 50 minutes.
Reduce oven temperature to 300°F (150°C), and bake until top is golden brown, about 10 minutes.
 
Let pie rest 10 minutes before serving.
