Ingredients:
For the Bars

Ingredient: Quantity
Refrigerated biscuit dough (1 can) 1 can
Vegetable oil For frying
For the Maple Glaze
Ingredient: Quantity
Powdered sugar 2 cups
Unsalted butter, melted 3 tablespoons
Pure maple syrup ¼ cup
Milk 2-3 tablespoons
Vanilla extract ½ teaspoon
Optional Add-Ins:

Maple extract | 1 teaspoon |
Chopped cooked bacon | ¼ cup |
Instructions:
Prepare the Dough:

Remove the biscuit dough from the can and separate the individual biscuits.
Gently shape each biscuit into a rectangular bar by stretching it out slightly. Set aside.
Heat the Oil:

In a large, deep skillet or pot, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Test the oil by dropping a small piece of dough into the oil—if it sizzles and rises to the top, the oil is ready.
Fry the Bars:

Carefully place the shaped dough into the hot oil, frying 2-3 bars at a time.
Fry for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Use tongs to remove the fried bars from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Repeat with the remaining bars.

Make the Maple Glaze:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, melted butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add milk (1 tablespoon at a time) until the glaze reaches your desired consistency—it should be thick enough to coat the bars but thin enough to drizzle easily.
Glaze the Bars:

Dip the top of each fried bar into the maple glaze, allowing the excess to drip off.
Place the glazed bars on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet to catch any drips.
For a sweet-savory twist, sprinkle the glazed bars with chopped bacon if desired.
Serve and Enjoy:

Let the glaze set for a few minutes before serving.
Enjoy these Quick Maple Bars warm with a cup of coffee, tea, or milk.
