How to make a Blueberry Donut recipe

In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar.

The dry ingredients whisked in a glass bowl.

In a medium bowl whisk together the egg, milk, yogurt, vanilla and melted and cooled butter until smooth.

The wet ingredients whisked in a silver bowl.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just until combined. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to over mix the batter.

Mixing the wet and dry ingredients and adding the blueberries.

Transfer the batter to a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the corner cut off. Pipe the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each one almost full. Or you can add the batter using a couple of spoons.

Bake the donuts in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a donut comes out clean. Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes before removing them and placing them on a cooling rack to cool completely.

Once the donuts are cool, you can add the glaze or topping of your choice, a white chocolate glaze would be delicious. You can also sprinkle some extra blueberries or lemon zest for extra flavor, or even a dusting of powdered sugar on top will work too.

Is it Donut or Doughnut?

In the Oxford English Dictionary it lists both spellings, Doughnut is the preferred spelling in British English and donut is the preferred American spelling. So in other words they both mean the same thing, just different spelling.

What Does Yogurt Do In A Baked Good?

When adding yogurt to a baked good such as a cake, sweet bread or baked donuts it adds moisture and fat to the batter which results in a moist and delicious result.

Blueberry baked donuts are a delicious and healthier alternative to traditional fried donuts. Whether you’re looking for a sweet breakfast treat or a midday snack, these donuts are sure to satisfy your cravings while also providing a boost of nutrients from the fresh blueberries. Enjoy!
