Description
Delicious and moist Lemon Blueberry Donuts perfect for breakfast or a sweet treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 cup blueberries (Fresh blueberries are best. If using frozen, toss in flour before adding to the batter.)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan with non-stick spray or butter.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, egg, lemon juice, and lemon zest until fully combined.
- Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.
- Carefully fold in the blueberries.
- Using a piping bag or a spoon, fill each donut mold approximately halfway with the batter.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 10–15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the donuts cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Once cooled, drizzle with a lemon glaze made from powdered sugar and lemon juice.
Notes
- For best results, use fresh blueberries. If using frozen, toss them in a little flour before adding to the batter to prevent them from sinking.
