🌟 Maple Glazed Bacon Donuts 🍁🥓🍩 – A Sweet-Savory Hug for Your Taste Buds! 🌟

🛒 Ingredients You’ll Need:

For the Donuts:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 3/4 cup whole milk
• 2 eggs
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Oil for frying (vegetable or canola)

For the Maple Glaze:

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1–2 tbsp milk (adjust for desired consistency)

For the Topping:

• 6 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled

💡 Substitutions: Use turkey bacon for a leaner option or gluten-free flour for dietary needs.

🍳 Directions to Create Magic:

1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
2. In another bowl, whisk milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla until well combined.
3. Add wet ingredients to the dry and stir until just combined—do not overmix.
4. Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy pot to 350°F (175°C).
5. Carefully spoon or pipe batter into donut shapes and fry until golden, about 1–2 minutes per side.
6. Drain donuts on a paper towel-lined rack.
7. While donuts cool slightly, mix maple syrup, powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until smooth to make the glaze.
8. Dip the warm donuts into the glaze and sprinkle generously with crumbled bacon.
9. Let glaze set slightly before serving (if you can wait!).

💬 Pro Tip: Make extra bacon—half of it disappears mysteriously before topping the donuts!
