Originating from the heart of North America, where maple syrup has been a beloved ingredient for centuries, maple glaze combines a rich, caramel-like flavor with a velvety texture for a simple yet delectable way to enhance your baked goods.<\/p>\n
Similar to classic glaze flavors such as vanilla<\/a> or chocolate, this maple version offers a comforting and sophisticated twist, whether you\u2019re drizzling it over your favorite doughnut recipe<\/a>, bundt cake<\/a> or scones.<\/p>\n Whisk confectioners’ sugar, milk, maple syrup and maple flavoring in a mixing bowl until the mixture reaches a smooth consistency. If the glaze is too thick, add a bit more milk, a teaspoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency. If it\u2019s too thin, add a little more confectioners’ sugar.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip<\/em>: To check the glaze\u2019s consistency, drizzle it over a small piece of parchment paper. It should flow smoothly but not be too runny.<\/p>\n Once your baked goods are completely cool, drizzle, dunk or spread the glaze over the top. Allow it to set for a few minutes before serving.<\/p>\n Commercial confectioners\u2019 sugar contains cornstarch, which causes this glaze to harden as it sits. It\u2019s really best to use it right after mixing, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to five days in the refrigerator. Bring the glaze to room temperature and whisk it vigorously to remove any clumps, adding additional milk if needed.<\/p>\n Freezing the glaze isn’t recommended as it may change the consistency.<\/p>\n This glaze can be used on any type of doughnut, from old-fashioned<\/a> and cake doughnuts to baked<\/a> or fried varieties. After making the doughnuts, wait until they are cool enough to handle. Dip them in the glaze and place them on wire racks. The glaze will harden within a few minutes. As with chocolate glaze for doughnuts, you can add sprinkles or nuts before the glaze hardens, if desired.<\/p>\n Maple glaze is an all-purpose glaze that adds color, sweetness and an attractive sheen to pastry recipes. Try drizzling it over cakes, apple turnovers<\/a>, pumpkin scones<\/a>, cream puffs, fruit tarts or cinnamon rolls<\/a>.<\/p>\n Both dark and amber maple syrups would work in this recipe. Darker syrups provide a more robust flavor, while amber syrups offer a lighter, more delicate taste. Here are the best maple syrup<\/a> brands, according to our experts.<\/p>\n Absolutely! Almond milk, soy milk or oat milk can be used in place of the 2% milk. Just keep in mind that non-dairy milks might slightly alter the flavor and consistency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This maple glaze is a delightful addition to your baking repertoire.
