maple bar

Frosted fried dough

A maple bar is a long, rectangular doughnut with maple-flavored icing on top.

The shape distinguishes it from round doughnuts—bars are typically made from raised yeast dough rather than cake batter.

A staple of American doughnut shops, especially in the Pacific Northwest: I grabbed a maple bar and a coffee on my way to work.
