# Ingredient List:
→ Main Components
01 -
4 glazed donuts, sliced horizontally
02 -
4 slices cheddar cheese
03 -
8 slices cooked turkey bacon
→ Condiments
04 -
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
05 -
2 tablespoons maple syrup
# Preparation Steps:
01 -
Using a sharp serrated knife, cut each glazed donut in half horizontally to create a top and bottom piece. Set the halves aside for assembly.
02 -
Spread a thin layer of softened unsalted butter on the cut sides of each donut half. Place one slice of cheddar cheese on the bottom half, followed by two slices of cooked turkey bacon. Drizzle maple syrup evenly over the bacon, then top with the remaining donut half, buttered side facing up.
03 -
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Arrange the assembled donut sandwiches buttered-side down in the hot skillet. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side, pressing gently, until the cheese is melted and the donut exterior is golden brown and caramelized.

Transfer the grilled sandwiches to a plate and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm to enjoy the harmonious blend of sweet glazed donut, melted cheddar, savory turkey bacon, and rich maple syrup.
