My Dad is Canadian which means he loves maple syrup and French toast topped with bacon and loads and loads of maple syrup is his favourite thing. When it was his birthday, I couldn't resist transforming his favourite treat into a cake and this tasted just like it.

Whisk together the butter and brown sugar.
Whisk in the maple syrup and eggs, one at a time.
Whisk in the spices until your batter tastes exactly like French toast then add half of the milk and half of the flour and whisk. Add the remaining milk and flour and then whisk.
Separate the batter into two greased cake tins and bake at 200'C for 25 minutes.
Fry up the Quorn bacon until crispy with a little olive oil, sugar and maple syrup and place to the side.
When the cake has cooled, make the frosting by whisking together the butter and shortening.
Whisk in the maple syrup and icing sugar.
Spread a third of the frosting on the bottom of the cake and top with three quarters of the bacon.
Sandwich the second cake on top and cover the whole cake with the remaining frosting.
Top with the remaining bacon and serve!
