Steps

1Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2Cook the bacon on a foil-lined baking sheet for 12-14 minutes, or until lightly golden and crispy.
3Chop cooked bacon up into bite-size pieces and toss with the maple sugar.
4Place the sugar-coated bacon pieces back into the oven on a small foil-lined baking sheet and broil for 1-2 minutes until sugar starts to melt. Watch closely because it can go from perfect to burned very quickly! Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
5Whisk together all remaining ingredients in a medium size bowl.
6Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat and spray with cooking oil spray.
7Using a ¼ cup measuring cup, add pancake batter to the pan and cook until bubbles start to form. Flip and cook the other side.
8Serve pancakes with crumbled maple bacon and real maple syrup (or a sugar-free version if watching sugar intake or calories).
