How to make maple butter:

1. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter until smooth and creamy.   Add the maple syrup and mix to combine.
2. Chop the cooked bacon into small pieces. Remove the bowl from the mixer and add the bacon. Fold it in with a spatula.
3. Spoon the Maple Bacon Butter into a mason jar and serve. Store leftovers in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 1 week.

Recipe Variation:

Add in ½ cup finely chopped walnuts for a nutty version of this delicious flavored butter!

Recipe Tip:

For the best taste, you need to use pure maple syrup. You can usually purchase it in the organic section at your regular grocery store. Here in New England, it's just about maple season. 

I can't wait to take my kiddos to a maple sugar shack to see how maple syrup is made.  My dad grew up on a farm in Pennsylvania where they tapped the trees and hauled buckets of sap in the early Spring. He loved to teach my sisters and I about it when we were growing up.
