Blogger Julianne from Beyond Frosting has created these loaded maple bacon donut fries that could become the next breakfast sensation. The similarities to poutine fries is undeniable, but I must say that they look tempting to make. I am sure this would be a fan favorite for any breakfast or brunch event you may host.

After watching an episode of Donut Showdown and seeing a baker make a [sweet version of poutine donuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pieinspired-doughnuts), Julianne knew she wanted to try something similar and loaded maple bacon donut fries were created. This is a perfect snack for anyone in your life who has a major sweet tooth.

Creating the maple bacon donut fries is pretty simple. You can use [Pillsbury](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/betty-crocker-harry-potter) Grand Biscuits rolled into thin strips, thick cut bacon all cut up into smaller pieces until cooked, maple syrup and chocolate drizzle on top. This is one recipe I might have to try myself.
