Ingredients
For the Donuts:
• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup buttermilk (or milk with 1 tablespoon vinegar added)
• 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed and drained)
For the Glaze (optional):
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2–3 tablespoons milk (or lemon juice for a tangy flavor)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
• Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a donut pan with non-stick spray or butter.
• Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
• Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the sugar, melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and buttermilk. Whisk until smooth.
• Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to overmix.
• Transfer Batter: Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full. You can use a piping bag or zip-top bag for easier filling.
• Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Cool: Let the donuts cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Make the Glaze (optional): In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk (or lemon juice), and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust consistency as needed.
• Glaze the Donuts: Once cooled, dip the tops into the glaze or drizzle it over the donuts.
• Enjoy: Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
