Fried Apples with Bacon and Pecans (Paleo)

Ingredients

1 strip sugar-free nitrate free bacon
8 roasted, unsalted pecans halves, chopped
1 tablespoon coconut oil
2 large, crisp apples, cored and sliced
1/2 teaspoon apple pie spice or cinnamon
zest from 1/4 lemon
generous pinch of salt

Directions

Fry bacon until crisp, crumble once cooled, and set aside. Wipe out bacon grease from pan, place back on the heat, and add pecans. Stir with wooden spoon until toasted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from pan.

In same pan, heat the coconut oil over medium high heat. Add the apple slices and saute until the apples begin to soften, about 2-3 minutes. In a small bowl, mix apple pie spice, lemon zest, and salt with a fork, then add to the apples. Continue cooking until the apples are golden and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

Spoon into small dishes and sprinkle with bacon bits and chopped pecans.

Personal Note
I haven't tried this recipe yet, but it looks really good. Sweet, salty. Soft, cruchy. A savory dessert.
