Ingredients

Scale

Donut Batter

  • 1/4 cup melted regular or vegan butter
  • 1 1/4 cup regular milk, oat milk, or almond milk
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cup regular or gluten free all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Vanilla Glaze (Optional)

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp regular milk, oat milk, or almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the donuts.
  2. Mix wet ingredients and leavening agents: In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, your choice of milk (regular, oat, or almond), baking soda, baking powder, sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir well to blend.
  3. Add flour: Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour (regular or gluten free), stirring just until the batter is combined to avoid overmixing.
  4. Incorporate blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh or frozen blueberries to distribute evenly throughout the batter without breaking them.
  5. Fill donut molds: Grease 14-16 donut molds lightly and pour the batter into each, careful not to overfill to prevent spillage during baking.
  6. Bake the donuts: Place the molds in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the donuts comes out clean.
  7. Prepare the glaze (optional): While donuts bake, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth for a simple vanilla glaze.
  8. Glaze the donuts: Once cooled slightly, drizzle the glaze atop the donuts if desired. They are also delicious without it.

Notes

  • Use fresh or frozen blueberries depending on availability; if using frozen, no need to thaw before adding to the batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter once flour is added to keep donuts tender.
  • Make sure to grease the donut molds well to ensure easy release after baking.
  • Glaze is optional and not included in nutritional calculations.
  • For vegan option, use vegan butter and plant-based milk.
