Maple Bacon Donut

Sweet and Savory Brunch Menu Inspiration

A pillowy soft yeast-raised donut coated in sweet maple icing and sprinkled with crispy Jones Raw Diced Bacon. Finished with a golden Jones Pork and Bacon Meatball set right in the hole — a fun, over-the-top individual serve that’s as craveable as it looks.

The Menu Concept

  • A pillowy soft and simple yeast raised donut, coated in sweet maple icing and sprinkled with crisp Jones Dairy Farm Diced Bacon.
  • For an over-the-top finish, a golden Jones Dairy Farm Pork and Bacon Meatball, set in the middle as a hole-in-one!

The Jones Difference

Two Jones products, one plate. The Jones Pork and Bacon Meatball is fully cooked and consistent in size, so it fits the donut hole cleanly every time without trimming or adjustment. The Jones Raw Diced Bacon crisps evenly across a sheet pan, giving you reliable coverage on every donut without hand-chopping.

Chef’s Note

This is a bar menu item that sells itself on presentation, but it has to be executed consistently to land. The meatball should be finished on a flat-top or in a skillet to develop a caramelized exterior before it goes in the hole — a pale, steamed-looking meatball undercuts the whole visual.

Glaze the donut while it’s still slightly warm so the maple icing sets with a light sheen rather than pooling. Bacon goes on immediately after glazing, before the icing sets, so it adheres cleanly.

Pre-batch all three components separately and assemble to order — total plate time is under 90 seconds once your prep is in place.
