How do you like your cornbread – sweet or savory? Well, these honey glazed cornbread donuts with crumbled bacon are a bit of sweet and a bit of savory all in one bite.
When I baked them, I served them as a side to my American goulash recipe. My son gave me the side eye when I put one on his plate, but the second he took a bite, he went right back into the kitchen to grab another one. Success!
Honey Glazed Cornbread Donuts with Crumbled Bacon
I promise they’re super easy to make. Start with a package of Krusteaz Honey Cornbread mix, and you’re over halfway there!
You’ll brush them with a honey glaze and sprinkle on some bacon, and then they’re ready for eatin’!

Enjoy!
I’ve never thought of putting bacon on doughnuts! I feel like that’s a very American thing ;P
I love love love the idea of mixing the sweet and savoury flavours. Doughnuts are normally sickly sweet and adding the savoury note is great!
You had me at donut. Then I saw the word bacon and you had me again. So delicious!
On my word the YUM here! Too bad you don’t have a doughnut pan give-away!! lol I’ll have to buy one instead.

You know it’s a success when they go back for more. 🙂 These sound easy enough to make too!
Honey glazed cornbread donuts with all the trimmings sound great. Our family has been Krusteaz fans forever, it seems. I can’t wait to try them. Bacon is the perfect touch.
That look so tasty! A cup of coffee or tea are the perfect way to end a day with this.
YUMMMMY and shut the front door. As a self proclaimed bacon connoisseur, one I should be embarrassed that I never thought to make this and two, I will surely have to try this now. 🙂
Looks so good and would be perfect right now when I’m a bit hungry and would love to have something savouruy instead of a chocolate bar, which I have next to me…
I like cornbread, but I never thought to make cornbread doughnuts. I would skip the bacon on top, but the doughnuts would make a nice addition to Sunday brunch.
I haven’t tried something like that before. Sounds and looks so delicious!
Two of my favorites but I haven’t try it yet putting them together. It must be a very interesting taste but I will surely like it.

Wow these sure are different! I love the fact there is BACON! I will have to give these a try!
I love cornbread but then adding the word donut AND bacon…. oh my gosh… sounds amazing!
I don’t eat bacon, but honey glazed cornbread donuts already sound great! 🙂
These look incredible. I am also always a bit dubious about sweet and savoury together but I reckon these will taste awesome.
Such a mouthwatering food! I really want to try these
These honey glazed cornbread donuts with crumbled bacon on top sound and look delicious. I know my dad is from the south and has always loved cornbread so these donuts are something I will have to make for him. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Dang, yes! I’d also love a maple glaze on them!
Oh my yummy goodness! I’ll take a whole dozen.
This is mouth watering. It looks super delicious. And the recipe is simple, I would like to try making it. Unfortunately, we don’t have an oven. Thanks for sharing.
You got me with donuts and bacon. This one looks really tasty and would a make a great snack combo.

Oh my goodness those look AMAZING!! You had me at bacon! I don’t think I’ve ever tried such a combo but something tells me I would love it!
This definitely sounds interesting and good!
thank you
Everything about this sounds delicious! We love cornbread so the idea of making donuts with bacon sounds AWESOME!
I’m a vegetarian now, but my gosh, you have me craving the whole enchilada here. Looks so yum! I’ll have to make a 1/2 ad 1/2 batch (some with bacon, some without) asap!
Now, this is my kind of donut! I’m sure it tastes as good as it looks. I love the idea of using cornbread, this makes the donut more filling. I’m sure this is a hit with the whole family especially the kids. I’d love to make these for my nephews when they come and visit!
Did someone say bacon and doughnuts?! These sound absolutely delicious!
These donuts look scrumptious! My family would flip if I made these! I bet the crumbled bacon adds the perfect salty/savory hint to the donuts! YUMMMMM!
Bacon makes everything better, doesn’t it? This would definitely be something I would love to try.
I’m a fan of sweet and salty foods, I never thought bacon and donuts could make such a great duo!!
Those look and sound delicious! My family would love them!
These look so good! Such a great treat for all bacon lovers like me!
These looks delicious! I never thought bacon on a donut, but the sweet and salty totally work!
I have a bit of an obsession with cornbread. Add in some butter and honey and I have to restrain myself from eating the whole pan. These donuts looks so delicious.
My kids really like cornbread ad I think a cornbread donut would be a huge hit in my home. I would have to forego the bacon and opt for turkey bacon ☺ instead. But these do sound delicious and I adore easy in the AM.
I’m a vegetarian but I am absolutely going to attempt this recipe sans bacon! Look so mouthwateringly delish! The cornbread takes these donuts to the next level!
These look delicious! You’ve taken cornbread to a whole new level.
oh my goodness! This one makes me hungry now and mouth watering! I’ll have to try this tonight, I’m craving for it.
These look so yummy! Although I am not a big bacon eater, there is just enough ti give it a great flavor
You had me at honey glazed! These donuts look so good. I’m sure they taste just as good as well. Thanks for the super easy recipe, I can’t wait to make this for the kids. They are crazy about bacon and donuts!
They look so good, indeed! And they’re easy to make which is perfect!
I love bacon with donuts and this looks like a delicious cakey donut which I also like. Thanks for the recipe!
Wow, these look ridiculously delicious! I love the combination of something sweet with something savory like bacon. These donuts are definitely a must-try!
You always make me hungry before sleep! It’s not fair. If I get up and start to make them I would make a mess and wouldn’t want to clean afterwards. Oh god, they are looking at me saying how delicious they are. I am going to cry…
OMG my mouth is watering! These look and sound so good. I will have to make them for my hubby because he truly loves anything with bacon on it!
My husband loves bacon too! And so do both of my boys. It really amuses me when they say, “Bacon is the duct tape of food!”
I was hooked at donut and bacon. You just combined two of the best breakfast foods. Yummy!
This sounds so good. And I def need to get a donut pan
Oh my god this sounds so good! Feel free to send some my way 🙂
I LOVE glazed donuts and these sound like I would not be able to eat just one! Not too sure about the bacon—but I’m willing to try anything once.
I think bacon makes everything even better!! These sound so good, perfect to pair up with a chili!
These look awesome. I love the whole sweet and salty thing. I first had bacon on brownies a few years back…thought it was strange but loved the taste. Now on donuts. I am loving this.
I have not had a donut is a long time. I need to make these!
Creative cooking that’s what I call this recipe. Donut, honey and bacon are amazing combination.
Bacon on honey – who can say no to that?? I was about to say I like my cornbread sweet but now I think I like them sweet AND savoury. Yum!!
Oh! My Lord, It think I have decided and went heaven. In this one this you were able to combine all the things that a southerner like me enjoys. I am going to have to try these out and see how my family responds to them.
You literally have the best recipes on here! These donuts look heavenly! I love salty and sweet!
Salty and sweet is one of my favorites too! I can’t wait to make these.
These donuts look so delicious!! It is perfect for breakfast.
OOh I really want donuts now, preferably as calorific as possible lol! This would be a great version for my bacon loving friend!
I love this recipe and am going to make these for my Summer picnic with the family this weekend. They look so delicious. Thanks for the recipe!
I like cornbread, though I rarely eat it. Do these come with a fat & calorie fact sheet? Just curious what I’d be giving up later….
You could probably plug the recipe into one of the websites that figure it out for you and get it that way! 🙂
My boys would love this. Our family loves bacon anything. I’m saving your recipe and gather all the ingredients. Now that the football season is near, I am collating easy to make recipes for game day.
Those look so good! I would love to make these for breakfast one morning!
Oh my goodness I am in love. These are so delicious looking. coming over fro snack time. I’ll bring the sweet tea.
OMG! Beautiful photos. I do like the honey glazed donut but not too sure how they would taste with crumbled bacon.
That sounds like the most delicious breakfast food ever! I love that you made a cornbread donut topped with bacon. Yummo!
Agree! These Honey Glazed Cornbread donuts with crumbled bacon would taste great at any time of the day!
Oh, these look good. In Nashville I tried a honey cornbread waffle and it was awesome, so I know these would be right up my alley.
What a great idea. The bacon and cornbread would be a perfect match.
Oh my goodness you are killing me. This looks amazing. I am definitely going to give this a try. I use Krusteze baking products all the time. They are top notch.
What the whaaaaaat? I need to make those, and I mean this afternoon! They look so good, and you have all the best flavors combined into one treat.
I want to eat this so bad. Its almost tea time here and I’m thinking what could be a better option than cornbread donuts that look this magical
Cornbread is my favorite bread of all and I’ve made it so many different ways, but I’ve never tried cornbread donuts. My family would go absolutely crazy over these. They are so pretty, too. I’ve got to try your recipe.
I never had bacon on donuts before but I do think they should taste good. I’m a bit intrigued by this recipe.
I never thought to make cornbread donuts, how interesting. I enjoy trying new recipes. Serving as a side to Goulash sounds amazing.
It sounds so good! I would love to give these a try. It’s just that I no longer eat bacon but I’m sure the kids will love it. I guess I would have to leave some for me with just the honey glaze on them.
These look delicious. Cornbread is not a South African staple which makes these even more enticing!
Seriously, I was in with the word “donuts,” but these are on a whole different level. I MUST try them!
