Classic Maple Bars: How to Make and Bake the Perfect Treat

• ▢ 1 8-count can of biscuits
• ▢ 2 cups frying oil, canola oil recommended

Maple Glaze

• ▢ ¼ cup butter
• ▢ ½ cup brown sugar
• ▢ 4 tbsp milk, plus more if needed
• ▢ 2 tsp vanilla or maple extract
• ▢ 2 cups powdered sugar

• Pour oil into a large pot and heat over medium-low until hot but not smoking.
• Gently stretch each biscuit into an oval shape, taking care not to tear the dough.
• Fry the stretched biscuits in batches, cooking 1–2 minutes per side until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
• For the glaze, combine butter, brown sugar, and milk in a small saucepan. Heat over medium, whisking frequently for 3–5 minutes until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth.
• Remove from heat, stir in the vanilla or maple extract, then gradually whisk in powdered sugar, ½ cup at a time, until you reach a smooth, dip-able consistency. Add a little extra milk if the glaze becomes too thick.
• Dip each warm donut into the maple glaze, allow excess to drip off, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
