Bacon Maple Beignets

Bacon Maple Beignets
This is powerful stuff! Not only because of the maple glaze and bacon combo, but because the actual beignets are very fluffy and have a nice yeasty taste. The preparation wasn’t hard either (except for the waiting….:)). And by the way, I didn’t have buttermilk, I just had a bottle of mango kefir in the fridge and that did nicely! Now I didn’t cover the beignets with the glaze entirely – I just drizzled some on. It would have been way too sweet if they were dipped whole in it. But seriously, this is becoming my go-to recipe for any sweet fritter kind of thing and I plan to add crazy stuff in the dough or as toppings.
