Provided by Food Network

Time 3h20m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 envelopes active dry yeast
1/3 cup warm water (105 to 115 degrees F)
2 cups lukewarm milk
2/3 cup white sugar
1/4 cup and 3 tablespoons shortening, plus 6 cups for frying
1 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3 eggs
6 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
Maple Glaze, recipe follows
1 pound hickory smoked bacon, cooked and finely chopped
2 to 3 cups powdered sugar
1/8 cup dark corn syrup
1/8 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon maple extract
Pinch salt

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • In a large bowl of a stand mixer or using an electric mixer, mix together the yeast mixture, milk, sugar, shortening, salt, eggs and 2 cups flour. Mix for a few minutes at low speed, or stirring with a wooden spoon.
  • Beat in remaining flour 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough no longer sticks to the bowl. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes Place the dough into a greased bowl and cover. Set in a warm place to rise until doubled in size. The dough is ready if you touch it and the indention remains.
  • Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently roll out to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut with a floured donut cutter. Let the donuts sit out to rise again until doubled in size. Cover loosely with a cloth.
  • Heat the shortening in a deep-fryer or large heavy skillet to 370 degrees F. Slide the donuts into the hot oil using a wide spatula. Turn the donuts over as they rise to the surface. Fry on each side until golden brown. Remove from the oil and drain on a wire rack.
  • While hot, dip the donuts into Maple Glaze, then into bacon pieces and set onto wire racks to drain off excess.
  • Mix 2 cups sugar, corn syrup, maple syrup, maple extract and salt into mixer. Mix well, 15 to 20 minutes. Add additional cup of powdered sugar to get to desired thickness. You may also add additional maple extract for desired taste.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb bacon, sliced
1/2 cup lightly packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Bake bacon in 350 degree oven in large pan 10-15min until crisp.
  • Drain fat.
  • Mix the rest of the ingredi.
  • and pour over the bacon.
  • Make sure bacon glaze covers both sides and bake at 350 degrees until it bubbles, about 10 min.
  • Remove bacon from pan and place on wax paper.
  • Cut slices in half if desired.
  • Do not refrigerate or cover, but let sit at room temp until ready to serve.
  • It should be dry to the touch, not sticky.
  • If bacon is limp or sticky, bake a bit longer, about 2 min.

Tips:

  • To ensure crispy bacon, start with cold bacon slices and cook them over medium-low heat.
  • Avoid overcrowding the pan, as this will prevent the bacon from cooking evenly.
  • Flip the bacon slices halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the bacon. Cook until it reaches 145°F (63°C) for chewy bacon or 165°F (74°C) for crispy bacon.
  • Drain the bacon on paper towels to remove excess grease.
  • For the maple-honey glaze, use equal parts maple syrup and honey. This will create a sweet and sticky glaze that perfectly complements the bacon.
  • Bring the glaze to a simmer in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly to prevent it from burning.
  • Once the glaze has thickened, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
  • Brush the glaze over the cooked bacon slices and let it set for a few minutes before serving.
