Anyone who has been to Portland in the past ten years has probably heard of Voodoo Doughnuts. Voodoo Doughnuts has become famous for creating some of the most unusual doughnuts, including the Nyquil Glazed doughnut and the Vanilla Pepto Crushed Tums doughnut. Needless to say, after health officials found out about these doughnuts they were pulled from the menu. Now, one of the most popular doughnuts at Voodoo is their Bacon Maple Bar.
Last year when I first came to Portland for my pharmacy school interview, my boyfriend and I made a trip to Voodoo to try some of their famous doughnuts. Knowing how much my dad loves bacon, I made sure to take a Bacon Maple Bar back to him and he LOVED it! This year when father's day rolled around I knew I wanted to try and recreate the doughnut but in cupcake form!
Not to toot my own horn or anything, but these cupcakes turned out AMAZING and I'm not even that big of a bacon person!
