MINI MAPLE-GLAZED DOUGHNUTS WITH COCONUT "BACON"
You may not know this about me, but I'm not one to gravitate towards doughnuts if there are other sweet treats available. That was, until I made these mini doughnuts. They are sooo good-salty and sweet at the same time, which is my favorite flavor combo of all.

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.

Steps:
- For streusel:
- Preheat oven to 300°F. Line rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk egg white in bowl until frothy, about 1 minute. Whisk in sugar and cinnamon. Fold in nuts. Spread mixture on prepared sheet. Bake until beginning to dry, about 12 minutes. Using metal spatula, stir to break up nuts. Continue to bake until nuts and coating are dry and golden brown, about 10 minutes; cool on sheet. Transfer streusel to work surface. Chop nuts into small (rice-size) bits. Transfer to shallow bowl.
- For doughnuts:
- Whisk first 5 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Using electric mixer, beat sugar and eggs in large bowl until very thick, about 3 minutes. Beat in orange peel and vanilla. Gradually beat in butter; beat in sour cream in 2 additions. Gently fold in dry ingredients in 4 additions (dough will be slightly sticky). Cover; set aside 1 hour.
- For glaze:
- Combine powdered sugar and maple extract in medium bowl. Add 4 tablespoons cream; whisk until smooth. Whisk in additional cream, 1 teaspoon at a time, to form medium-thick glaze. Cover and let stand up to 3 hours.
- Sprinkle 2 rimmed baking sheets lightly with flour. Press out 1/3 of dough on lightly floured surface to 1/2- to 2/3-inch thickness. Using 2 1/2-inch-diameter round cutter, cut out dough rounds. Arrange on floured sheets. Repeat with remaining dough in 2 more batches. Gather all dough scraps. Press out dough; cut out more dough rounds until all dough is used.
- Using 1-inch-diameter round cutter, cut out center of each dough round to make doughnuts and doughnut holes.
- Line 2 baking sheets with several layers of paper towels. Pour oil into large deep skillet to depth of 1 1/2 inches. Attach deep-fry thermometer and heat oil to 365°F to 370°F. Fry doughnut holes in 2 batches until golden brown, turning once, about 2 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels. Fry doughnuts, 3 or 4 at a time, until golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Using slotted spoon, transfer doughnuts to paper towels. Cool doughnuts and doughnut holes completely.
- Working with 1 doughnut at a time, spread glaze over 1 side, then dip glazed side into streusel. Arrange doughnuts, streusel side up, on rack. Let glaze set at least 30 minutes. Coat doughnut holes with same glaze and dip into streusel.
Tips:
- To make the glaze, you will need maple syrup, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk. You can adjust the amount of milk to achieve the desired consistency.
- Make sure the doughnuts are completely cooled before glazing them. This will help the glaze set properly.
- If you want a thicker glaze, you can add more powdered sugar. If you want a thinner glaze, you can add more milk.
- You can use any type of doughnut for this recipe. However, cake doughnuts and yeast doughnuts are the most popular choices.
- You can also use this glaze on other pastries, such as muffins, croissants, and scones.
Conclusion:
Maple glaze is a delicious and easy way to add flavor and sweetness to your doughnuts. It is also a great way to use up leftover maple syrup. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a glaze that will make your doughnuts irresistible.
