8 slices artisan bread (sourdough recommended)

8 slices thick-cut beef bacon
6 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated or thinly sliced
1 medium Granny Smith apple, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons Hot Honey
Pinch flaky sea salt (optional)

Instructions
Start by preparing homemade hot honey by heating honey with red pepper flakes.

Slice the Granny Smith apple and grate or slice the sharp cheddar cheese.
