Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 160°C. Line a 12-cup metal muffin pan with paper liners. Make cupcakes. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, pudding, baking powder, potato starch, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the butter and sugar with a mixer on low speed until combined, 6-8 minutes. Gradually beat in the vanilla and egg whites. Scrape down the sides of the bowl; continue beating until light and fluffy. Add the flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with the maple syrup and cream, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Add the flour mixture last. Combine all ingredients; do not overbeat. Stir in the bacon.

  3. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, filling each cavity three-quarters full. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool completely.
  4. Meanwhile, prepare the cream. Beat the cream cheese and butter with a mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, maple syrup, and cinnamon; mix well. Pipe the frosting onto the cooled cupcakes; top with bacon bits, if desired.
