Maple Bacon-Onion Jam

During a visit to the Biltmore House in Asheville, North Carolina, I "experienced" Maple Bacon-Onion Jam on a burger at their Bistro. They offered me the recipe, but I forgot to ask again when I left. This is my best interpretation of what I had there. I must say, 'I am not disappointed.'

Maple Bacon Blondies Maple Bacon Blondies
Usually, if it’s not chocolate, I don’t spend much time on it. However, in the interest of my not-chocolate-loving kiddo and National Blondie Day, I made an exception. Maple Bacon Blondies are pretty great, lack of chocolate and all. You can certainly leave out the bacon or the walnuts and simply have maple blondies. That would be pretty fine, too.
