Instructions
Making Maple Raspberry Bacon Donuts is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to create your delicious treats:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Add Raspberries and Bacon: Gently fold in the raspberries and crumbled bacon, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
6. Fill the Donut Pan: Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about ¾ full.
7. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Cool the Donuts: Remove from the oven and allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, mix the maple syrup and powdered sugar until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more syrup or sugar as needed.
10. Glaze the Donuts: Once the donuts are cool, dip the tops into the maple glaze, allowing the excess to drip off. Place them back on the wire rack.
11. Garnish: Top the glazed donuts with additional crumbled bacon and fresh raspberries for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.
