Mini Maple Glazed Doughnuts With Coconut Bacon Recipes

MAPLE DONUTS WITH COCONUT BACON SPRINKLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a mini doughnut pan and set it aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, xanthan gum (if using), baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, salt, cream of tartar, maple sugar, and brown sugar. Whisk to combine. Add the butter, eggs,maple syrup, and extract then beat with a whisk to combine well. The batter will be thin.
• Transfer the batter to a piping bag fitted with a small plain tip or a squeeze bottle. If using a piping bag, be careful not to let the batter come out of the tip where you don't want it to. Squeeze the batter into the prepared doughnut wells until they are each about 2/3 of the way full. Shake the pan back and forth, tapping it lightly on the counter until the batter is in an even layer in each well.
• Place the pan in the center of the preheated oven and bake until the tops of the doughnuts spring back when pressed (about 10-12 minutes). The underside will be browned, but the tops will still be pale. Remove the pan from the oven and allow the doughnuts to cool for about 3 minutes, or until they are no longer too hot to touch. The transfer to a wire rack and repeat the baking process with the remaining batter. Allow the donuts to cool completely.
• Combine the powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons of water in a large mixing bowl. Beat with a whisk until no lumps remain. If the mixture is too thick add more water a tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency for dipping donuts in achieved. Dip the presentation side of the donut in the icing and press down to coat completely. Pull it straight up from the icing allowing the excess to drip back into the bowl then transfer back to the wire rack. Complete this dipping process with all of the remaining donuts.
• Once the donuts are iced sprinkle coconut bacon on top of each donut.
• Serve immediately, or at least within a day or two stored uncovered at room temperature..

• Pour the butter and sugar mixture into the flour mixture and stir until just combined.

• Fill a pastry bag with the batter or spoon it into the greased doughnut pan, filling three-quarters of the way full, making sure that the batter is evenly distributed around the ring.
• Bake for approximately 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges begin to pull away from the pan.
• Let the doughnuts cool in the pan for about 5 minutes then remove them from the pan and let them cool completely on a rack.
• FOR THE GLAZE
• In a small bowl, whisk the powdered sugar and maple syrup. Add 1 tsp of water at a time and whisk until it turns into a sticky and smooth glaze.
• Dip the tops of the completely cool doughnuts into the glaze, sprinkle with the coconut bacon chips, and place them on a parchment lined baking sheet to set.

MAPLE BACON DONUTS - MINI DONUT RECIPE

Steps:

• Start by creaming together the eggs and sugar. Add in the melted butter and mix well. Add baking powder and spices.
• Mix in the flour and milk alternating between the two to make mixing easier. Start filling mini donut molds in your method of choice - recommend piping bag method.
• While your maple bacon mini donuts are baking you need to start making some icing. And you need to fry up some bacon! I used bacon bits because then the work of chopping up the bacon is already done for me.
• Let your mini donuts and bacon bits cool down before you start dipping them into the frosting so that it doesn't just runoff.
• Give it a minute to set and then add some chopped-up bacon onto your mini donuts.
