INGREDIENTS

For Waffles

8 Slices Bacon
4 tsp Sweet Applewood Barbecue Rub & Seasoning
1 cup Flour
1 tsp Baking Powder
½ tsp Baking Soda
¼ tsp Smokey Bacon Sea Salt
1 Tbsp Stonewall Kitchen Maine Maple Syrup
¾ cup Buttermilk
3 Tbsp Maple-Wood Smoked Bacon Infused Olive Oil
1 Egg
1 Stonewall Maple Pumpkin Butter, for serving (Optional)

For Syrup 

1¾ cup Stonewall Kitchen Maine Maple Syrup
2 Tbsp Bourbon Barrel Aged Balsamic Vinegar
1 Tbsp Bourbon, optional 

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with foil.
2. Season each slice of bacon with ½ tsp rub. Cook for 15 minutes, flip bacon, then cook for another 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels then chop into small pieces, reserving 2 slices of bacon for topping.
3. In a small bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
4. In a medium bowl combine the maple syrup, buttermilk, oil, and egg. Whisk until well combined.
5. Add dry ingredients into wet ingredients and whisk until just combined, careful not to overmix.
6. Carefully fold in the 6 slices of candied Bacon. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
7. Heat a waffle iron and grease. Pour ⅓ cup - ½ cup batter into the waffle iron and follow manufacturer instructions for cooking.
8. Meanwhile in a small pot over medium heat combine maple syrup, bourbon balsamic vinegar, and bourbon. Once bubbling reduce heat to low and keep warm until ready to serve.
9. Serve waffles with reserved bacon, fresh berries, and warm bourbon syrup. Substitute berries for Stonewall Kitchen Maple Pumpkin Butter during the fall!
