Maple Bacon Cupcakes

Maple Bacon Cupcakes- The Baker Chick

If you’re still deciding about getting on the bacon-in-desserts band wagon, now’s the time. I have to admit I wasn’t always so keen on the idea, but after two attempts at merging the salty, smoky, crispiness with sweet baked goods, I’m pretty sold. I made bacon-chocolate chip cookies with maple glaze last year and was a huge fan of  the mix of flavors. I mean haven’t you ever had a pancake, syrup, bacon bite on your brunch plate?

These cupcakes, a recipe from Lindsay’s new cookbook Breakfast For Dinner, were really wonderful. And if you’re on the fence about whether or not you are at all interested in this not so traditional flavor-pairing, this may be a good place to start. The bacon is candied in brown sugar in cocoa powder and broken into crisp little bits. The cupcake is full of brown sugar and maple syrup, and a chocolate maple buttercream sits on top. The candied bacon adds that little something special without being over-powering or “meaty.”

The cookbook, which is full of gorgeous photos and tons of recipes I’d love to try,  comes out in a couple weeks, but in the meantime I’m giving away a copy here! (Giveaway closed 2/5.)

    My first experience with bacon was in Athens, GA at a doughnut shop. The doughnut was called “the elvis” it was a regular doughnut with maple syrup glaze and bits of banana and bacon on top. It was their best seller and you practically had to get there super early to be able to get one. Bacon and sweets almost taste like when you are having a big breakfast of pancakes and bacon and eggs and the maple syrup mixes into your bacon and eggs. Yummy!!!

    This sounds yummy. Over the years I’ve gotten a little “braver” and gone out of the box. There was a time when I did not like any sweet with my savory or savory with my sweet – but I’m really starting to like the combination with certain flavors, and BACON is a good one to incorporate. I’d love the book, it would force me more outside my comfort zone.

    I wrap our Thanksgiving turkey in bacon and baste with maple syrup. The bacon comes off candied in it and has a great sweet/salty flavor. I’ve never gone as far as doing something like that in a dessert but can see how it would work.

    Remember awhile back when bacon really seemed to be making a comeback? There were a few chain restaraunts that really jumped on the bandwagon and were offering special dishes featuring bacon. Well..one of those dishes happened to be an ice cream sundae with…BACON! Bacon and ice cream? You bet ! Now every so often my kids and I get a craving for that sundae..so we recreated it at home. A generous scoop of our favorite vanilla ice cream topped with crispy bacon and a hearty drizzle of maple syrup! Divine! I have been wanting to try the chocolate chip cookie with bacon….and now another recipe to try.. I have just been inspired :) The cookbook looks gorgeous!

    I think bacon in desserts are really popular right now and for good reason…there is something so yummy about the sweet and salty savory mix of bacon and chocolate or a rich buttercream that is just so tasty ! I love the idea of putting bacon in pancake batters and waffle mix and also as a garnish or topping on cupcakes..

Your picture of the cupcakes has inspired me to make them for the Super Bowl. The ladies will like the chocolate and the guys will go for the bacon. Yum!

    I love bacon, like fresh from the farm, cured bacon. However, I’m very much over bacon as a trend in desserts. Like what’s wrong with just bacon? Why does it need to be added to almost EVERYTHING? It’s starting, for me at least, to lose any sort of special quality and I’ve become almost a strict sausage as my breakfast meat kind of girl.

    I was a vegetarian for two and a half years. I was doing manual labor building hiking trails and working in national parks when I decided I needed to bring meat back into my life. Ever since then, I have had a newfound appreciation for bacon. I’m also a HUGE fan of salty/sweet combos. One night after a little too much wine, my mom and I made a batch of brownies and decided to sprinkle them with sea salt. Ever since then, I can’t eat a brownie that isn’t salted! So give me a cupcake, brownie, scone, whatever, with a piece of crisp salty bacon on top and call me happy!

    My best friend loves bacon. She has turned me on to adding it to some dishes I would not normally think of. I really like the idea of salty and sweet that I think the bacon with the chocolate cupcake would be wonderful. I can’t wait to try this. Prob make it for my best friend’s birthday in the next week.

    I’m still on the fence. I think I could embrace it better if it was hidden in the recipe! I have gotten over baking with sour cream though, so who knows, the sky is the limit I suppose!!

    I think – with the right flavor combination – that bacon is delish in desserts! it is, after all, the candy of the meat world! FUN giveaway – thanks!

    I really like the idea of adding bacon , but I haven’t been able to use it, because I try to cook, bake and eat healthy so I haven’t been able bring myself to use it yet… that said, I bought a slab of bacon this week, so it looks like it will be in my baking future – especailly with a yummy recipe like this!

    I made bacon peanut butter chocolate chip cookies about a year ago and my man has not stopped talking / asking for them since. I have yet to make them again due to the fact that he ate the entire batch in 1 day, which I’m sure was like 10,000 million calories.
    I’m more of a chocolate covered bacon girl. Just give it to me straight up! No need to hide it in a cookie, man.

    Not sure I like bacon in my desserts. I hate some chocolate covered bacon and I definitely thought I’d rather have eggs with bacon and eat chocolate afterwards. The chocolate was too salty and the bacon too sweet. bleh

    I don’t think I would enjoy bacon in my desserts. I think the flavor would be too strange for me,

    I’ve not had bacon in desserts, other than the pancake thing, but I’m getting read to try. Might as well start with your recipe.
