Maple-glazed doughnuts with bacon

You can skip the bacon entirely here if you prefer but that salty, meaty crunch really does take these bad boys into another stratosphere of flavour altogether. (Be sure to use thinly sliced, streaky bacon here and avoid overly wet bacon; this makes all the difference in it cooking to ultimate crispness). Make smaller doughnuts if you like, too. You’ve got toast bread for a few mornings!
