bacon maple doughnuts

 
Erin gave me a mini doughnut pan for Christmas
and having just made some chocolate-covered bacon
I figured this was a perfect time to test out the new pan with some bacon maple doughnuts

made a spiced maple batter for the doughnuts
you can pretty much use any type of cake or muffin batter with this pan

because these are baked, they come out with a cake/muffin consistency
for most folks these probably wouldn't satisfy a doughnut craving
but they are still a fun and tasty treat

whisked together a simple maple glaze

dipped the top half of the doughnuts in the glaze
then garnished with pieces of chocolate-covered bacon

did a few with chocolate sprinkles instead of the bacon

these guys don't even compare to a voodoo bacon maple bar
or any other deep fried doughnut w/bacon on it, but they did satisfy my sweet tooth
I would say this doughnut is more similar to a dense cupcake than a doughnut
