Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Preheat the oven to 400F.
In a large bowl or mixer, combine the brown sugar and egg.
Next add the melted butter or oil, milk of choice, and lastly the maple syrup.
In a separate bowl, combine the Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour, baking powder, kosher salt, and cinnamon until homogenous.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet, until the batter begins to come together. Mix for 2-3 minutes so that the ingredients are well incorporated and have time to start working together.
Rest for ten minutes.
Meanwhile in a skillet, render the bacon strips until crispy.
Remove and place on a paper-towel-lined plate or tray until cool.
Chop into small rustic pieces and reserve.
Amply grease the donut pans.
A piping bag or zip baggy with a tip cut off is ideal for getting the batter into the molds.
Evenly pipe the donut batter into the molds (12 donuts total), smoothing the tops with wet finger tips.
Place in the oven and bake for 13-15 minutes at 400F.
Allow them to cool completely.
In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk of choice to make a simple maple glaze.
When the donuts are cooled, remove them from the pan, dunk the top side into the glaze, and immediately sprinkle with bacon. If you wait between glazing and adding the bacon, the bacon won’t stick to the donuts.
Allow the glaze to set before serving. Enjoy!
