CAN I SUBSTITUTE/ADD ANYTHING OUT?
I always encourage creativity when it comes to these recipes however, this recipe is super simple so there isn’t much I would personally recommend to substitute or switch out.
I understand that asparagus can get pricey so if asparagus is not an option, you could always use green beans instead. As for the bacon, there isn’t a lot of swaps aside from the type of bacon you get! You can try doing maple turkey bacon or perhaps even thin slices of beef like the ones of hot pot and brush a little bit of maple syrup on them!
WHAT DOES MAPLE BACON WRAPPED ASPARAGUS TASTE LIKE?
Maple Bacon Wrapped Asparagus offers a delightful combination of flavors. The crisp bacon adds a savory, smoky richness that complements the tender-crisp asparagus spears perfectly. The maple syrup glaze adds a touch of sweetness, enhancing the overall flavor profile with a hint of caramelized richness. Together, these ingredients create a mouthwatering dish that strikes a balance between savory and sweet, making it a delectable appetizer or side dish option.
HOW LONG DOES IT KEEP FOR?
Maple Bacon Wrapped Asparagus is best enjoyed fresh and hot out of the oven for optimal flavor and texture. However, if you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat them in the oven or microwave until warmed through before serving again.

- Wrap each piece of asparagus with a thin bacon strip and place it onto the baking dish. Be sure to lay each bacon wrapped asparagus flat and not on top of each other.
- Once all your asparagus is laid flat on the baking tray, sprinkle you garlic powder, brown sugar and pepper evenly across all pieces.

My partner loves bacon-wrapped asparagus, but I always used regular bacon to make them. The maple bacon does seem like a good combination with the asparagus!
