Ingredients
- 8 lices Wright® Brand Bacon
Donuts
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup milk
- 1 teaspoon maple extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 lices Bacon crumbled
Icing
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon maple extract
- 1 ½ tablespoons milk
- Pinch of kosher salt
- 4 lices Bacon crumbled
Instructions
Cook the Bacon
- Line a baking sheet with two layers of parchment paper.
- Arrange the slices of bacon onto the parchment paper.
- Turn on the oven to 400°F, and place the prepared baking sheet in the oven as it warms.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the bacon has browned and crisped up. (You want it to be crispy enough to crumble, so keep this in mind.)
- Remove from the oven, and let cool slightly.
- Once cooled, crumble the bacon slices
Make the Donuts
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Spray a donut pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
- In a glass bowl, combine the melted butter and sugar—whisking together until smooth.
- Pour in the milk and maple extract, stirring until combined.
- In another bowl, measure out the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir to mix.
- Sprinkle the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
- Add the crumbled bacon into the batter, stirring until combined. Reserve enough crumbled bacon to top the donuts before you serve them.
- Carefully dollop three tablespoons of the batter into each of the donut molds, careful not to cover up the center so the donuts have holes.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until browned and cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
Make the Glaze
- In a glass bowl, combine the powdered sugar, maple extract and milk. Add a pinch of salt.
- Whisk the ingredients together until smooth.
- Carefully dip the baked donuts into the icing, and then top with the reserved bacon crumbles.
- Enjoy!
