Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a saucepan over medium-high heat, combine 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons cold water, butter, sugar, salt, and nutmeg. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Once the mixture simmers, reduce heat to medium and add flour. Stir constantly until a soft dough ball forms. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Remove from heat, transfer to a mixing bowl, and stir in vanilla extract. Break up the dough and let it cool. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Add one egg at a time, whisking until fully incorporated and the dough becomes smooth and sticky. Repeat with the remaining eggs. (15 minutes)

05

Step

Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill. (60 minutes)

06

Step

Place bacon in a cold skillet and cook over medium heat until browned and crisp. Reserve some bacon bits for topping. (8 minutes)

07

Step

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

08

Step

Remove dough from the refrigerator and stir in bacon pieces.

09

Step

Drop dough by scoopfuls (about 2 tablespoons) into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid crowding. (15 minutes)

10

Step

Fry until golden brown, turning occasionally, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

11

Step

Serve hot, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with reserved bacon pieces.

For a richer flavor, consider using brown butter instead of regular butter.
Experiment with different toppings such as powdered sugar or a maple glaze.
Ensure the oil temperature remains consistent for even cooking.
