Best Maple Glazed Bacon Peanuts Recipes

MINI MAPLE-GLAZED DOUGHNUTS WITH COCONUT "BACON"

Steps:

• For the coconut "bacon": Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Mix together the coconut chips, soy sauce, liquid smoke and maple syrup in a medium bowl. Spread in a single layer on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake, stirring halfway through, until the coconut is golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool. The "bacon" will crisp up as it cools.
• For the doughnuts: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the almond milk and coconut oil. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Pour the peanut or canola oil halfway up the sides of a cast-iron skillet and heat to 350 degrees F.
• Whisk together the flour, cane sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Make a well in the center and pour the hot milk mixture in the well. Mix until a thick dough forms. Roll portions of dough into 12 balls and use your thumb to make holes in the centers.
• Fry the doughnuts, in batches, until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Let drain on paper towels.
• Meanwhile, make the maple glaze: Stir together the confectioners' sugar, maple syrup, maple extract and salt in a small bowl. Dip the doughnuts in the glaze and sprinkle with the coconut "bacon" before serving.

MAPLE-ROASTED BACON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place a baking rack on a sheet pan and arrange the bacon in 1 layer on the baking rack. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the bacon begins to brown. Remove the pan carefully from the oven; there will be hot grease in the pan! Brush the bacon slices with maple syrup and bake for another 3 to 5 minutes, until the bacon is a warm golden brown. Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels and serve warm.

MAPLE GLAZED BACON DROP DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• In 3-quart heavy saucepan or 4-quart Dutch oven, heat 2 inches oil to 350°F.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat egg, milk and butter with fork. Stir in flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and bacon.
• Carefully drop dough by heaping tablespoons, 6 balls at a time, into hot oil. Fry doughnut balls 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side, or until golden brown; drain on paper towels until cooled, about 20 minutes.
• In medium bowl, mix powdered sugar and water until smooth; stir in maple-flavored syrup. Add additional water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until thick glazing consistency. Dip cooled doughnut balls into glaze; let excess drip off. (If glaze disappears while drying, glaze may be too thin. Try dipping balls again, or thicken up glaze by adding a small amount of powdered sugar.) Place glazed doughnut balls on cooling rack; let stand until glaze is set, about 10 minutes.
