Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 375F 190C and line a muffin tin with paper liners

In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and water to make a simple syrup

Heat over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves

Once it starts boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly

Place the bacon slices on a wire rack set over a baking sheet

Brush both sides of the bacon slices with the simple syrup and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon becomes crispy and candied

Remove from the oven and let it cool

Once cool, chop the candied bacon into small pieces

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggnog, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla extract, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt

Add the cubed bread to the eggnog mixture and gently toss to coat

Allow the bread to soak for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally

Divide the soaked bread mixture among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full

Top each muffin with a generous sprinkling of the chopped candied bacon

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the muffins are set and the tops are golden brown

Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving

Optionally, drizzle with additional maple syrup and sprinkle with more candied bacon for extra decadence
