Ingredients

Scale

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup cooked and crumbled maple-flavored bacon
Maple syrup for drizzling
Cooking spray or oil for greasing the pan

Instructions

Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined.
Add Wet Ingredients
Pour in the milk, crack in the egg, and add the melted butter and vanilla extract. Stir just until the batter comes together—don’t overmix.
Fold in Bacon
Gently fold the crumbled maple bacon into the batter so it’s evenly distributed.
Fill the Muffin Pan
Lightly grease a mini muffin pan with cooking spray or oil. Spoon the batter into each cup, filling them about ¾ full.
Bake
Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 10–12 minutes or until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Serve
Let cool for a few minutes, then drizzle warm maple syrup over the bites. Serve immediately and enjoy every savory-sweet bite!

Notes

Bacon Tip: Make sure your bacon is fully cooked and crispy before folding it into the batter.
Make Ahead: These can be made the night before—just warm them slightly and drizzle syrup before serving.
Variations: Try adding a pinch of cinnamon or a few chocolate chips for a fun twist!
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat before serving.
