Grease a 9 in (2 in deep) round or 8 inch square baking pan. Line bottom with parchment paper.
Cook the bacon until medium brown...It will continue to cook in the oven ..So don't overdo it.
Chop the bacon and add to bowl with the brown sugar, flour, syrup and melted butter.
Stir to combine and pour into prepared baking pan. Spread evenly.
For the biscuits
Combine flour, baking powder and salt in large bowl.
Cut in the butter until crumbly.
Add milk and stir to form a sticky dough.
Spoon dough, by heaping tablespoons, over the maple bacon topping in pan.
Combine the cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle over the dough.
Bake for 10 minutes...Then turn off oven and leave biscuits sit in the oven for another 5 minutes until golden.
Remove from oven and invert onto plate immediately.
For the syrup: (optional)
Combine butter, syrup and cinnamon in small bowl.
Melt together in microwave. Stir and drizzle over biscuit when serving.
Notes
These are plenty sweet without the addition of the buttery syrup at the end..It just gives a nice extra something to the biscuit. Feel free to exclude it!
