Servings 16 donuts
Ingredients
- 2 tubes 16.3 oz each refrigerated biscuits
- Vegetable oil for frying enough for 2 inches deep in pan
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
- 2 teaspoons maple extract
- 2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Separate the biscuits and flatten and stretch into a log shape.
- Heat hot oil in a pan on the stove. Working in batches, fry the biscuits, about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Add butter, brown sugar and milk to a sauce pan and heat on medium low heat, stirring constantly until butter is melted and sugar is no longer grainy.
- Remove from heat and stir in corn syrup and maple extract.
- Whisk in powdered sugar until blended smooth. Icing will begin to harden, but it should be fine to dunk.
- Dredge the top of each bar into the icing and flip over onto a flat surface for icing to firm up. Repeat until all bars are covered. Serve immediately.
- Store any leftover maple bars loosely covered at room temperature. These are best when eaten within 24 hours of making.
