MAPLE GLAZE INGREDIENTS

1 1/2 c powdered sugar

1/4 c maple syrup

1/4 c water

* I used milk

DOUGHNUT INGREDIENTS

1 1/2 c of all-purpose flour

1 3/4 tsp baking powder

1/4 c of lightly packed brown sugar

1/4 c of white sugar

1/2 tsp kosher salt

1 tsp nutmeg

1/3 c of cold butter, cut into small pieces

1/4 c of milk, room temperature

* I added an extra half cup because it looked dry

1 1/2 c of bite size chunks of apple, peeled and cored

* I grated the apple

1 egg, room temperature

1 c coarsely chopped cooked bacon

MAPLE GLAZE INSTRUCTIONS

• In a medium-sized bowl, mix all 3 glaze ingredients until you get the consistency you like. Set aside.

DOUGHNUT INSTRUCTIONS

• Whisk the flour, baking powder, sugars, salt and and nutmeg in a bowl.

• Add the cold chopped butter. Rub the pieces of butter with the flour mixture until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

• Mix in the milk and fold in the apples.

• In a separate bowl, beat the egg then add to the flour mixture. Stir using a spatula or spoon making sure not to over mix.

• Preheat your doughnut hole maker (refer to your box instructions), this only takes a couple minutes.

* I greased the mold with a bit of melted butter to prevent sticking.

• Place a spoonful of batter into each mold of a buttered mini muffin pan.

• Bake for 5-6 minutes or until the donuts are just golden. Remove from the doughnut hole maker.

• Dunk in the maple glaze then place on a wire rack.

• Immediately sprinkle with bacon.

** ADDIECAKES' NOTES **

• If you don't have a doughnut hole maker, you can use a mini muffin pan. Preheat your oven to 350˚F and bake for 15-18 min.

• The doughnut holes get soggy the next day, so they should be eaten the day they are made.
