If you don't know by now all of my recipes are gluten free because my partner is coeliac. I try to make him the food he can no longer eat - like doughnuts! This ones a baked version, not the best version or anything 'new' I'm sure, but it was good enough to sort out a craving. This recipe makes about 24 mini doughnuts, just the base, you can top it with whatever your heart desires. Since we both love bacon I thought id make a maple glaze and top it with crispy salty bacon! Again - this is not new, but it's a ripper of a combination.
