Best 3 Maple Bacon Upside Down Biscuits Recipes

MAPLE BACON CHEDDAR BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add bacon and cook until brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat; transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. In a large bowl, combine bacon, flour, cheese, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Grate butter using the large holes of a box grater. Stir into the flour mixture. In a medium bowl, whisk together buttermilk and 4 tablespoons maple syrup. Add to the flour mixture and stir using a rubber spatula until a soft dough forms. Working on a lightly floured surface, knead the dough 3-4 times until it comes together. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a 1 1/4-inch thick rectangle. Cut out 12 rounds using a 2 to 2 1/2-inch biscuit or cookie cutter. Place biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet; place in the freezer for 15 minutes. Remove biscuits from freezer. Place into oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. In a small bowl, whisk together remaining 2 tablespoons maple syrup and butter. Serve biscuits warm, brushed with the maple-butter mixture.

MAPLE-BACON UPSIDE-DOWN BISCUITS RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Cook the bacon until barely done, light to medium brown but not crispy; then chop into 1/2" pieces. Add bacon to a small mixing bowl along with the remaining Topping ingredients. Set aside. Line an 8-9" square baking dish with parchment paper, then spray with cooking spray. Spread the topping evenly in the prepared pan. (I used 2 forks.) Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar (if using). Cut the butter in until coarse pea size crumbs. Slowly add the milk, stirring just until a sticky dough forms. Drop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto the top of the syrup mixture in the pan. (I made 9 even portions.) Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until biscuits are golden brown. Remove from oven and immediately invert onto a serving plate. Spoon any syrup left in the pan over the biscuits. Serve warm. (Leftovers can be microwaved for 10-12 seconds to reheat.)

MAPLE-BACON BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a nonstick baking sheet.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cream of tartar, and salt in a large bowl. Use a pastry cutter to cut cold butter into flour mixture, until you see small, pea-sized pieces of butter throughout the dough. Add milk, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, and egg and mix just until the ingredients are combined; do not overmix. Dough will be sticky with visible pieces of butter.
• Turn dough out onto generously floured surface and sprinkle bacon pieces on top. Gently knead dough 10 to 15 times to incorporate bacon, sprinkling with additional flour if the dough is super sticky.
• Pat the dough out to a 3/4- to 1-inch thickness and cut with a biscuit cutter or glass. Transfer biscuits to the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, 10 to 15 minutes. Brush the tops with melted butter and remaining maple syrup for extra depth.
