Ingredients

Doughnuts

  • Vegetable oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 6 slices maple-flavored bacon, crisply cooked, crumbled

  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1/3 cup maple-flavored syrup
Make With
Gold Medal Flour

Instructions

  • Step 
    1
    In 3-quart heavy saucepan or 4-quart Dutch oven, heat 2 inches oil to 350°F.
  • Step 
    2
    Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat egg, milk and butter with fork. Stir in flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and bacon.
  • Step 
    3
    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.
  • Step 
    4
    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.
