Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup honey or use sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
  • 3 eggs room temperature if you have time
  • 1/2 cup Greek Yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla or almond extract
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 1 cup powdered sugar have an additional 1/2 cup on hand if needed to thicken it

Instructions

DONUTS

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together.
  • Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the eggs, honey, yogurt, and extract.
  • Stir up that center as best you can without getting dry ingredients in.
  • Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet just until mixed.
  • Add the melted butter and stir well. Do not over stir donuts, you'll get rubbery and gross ones!
  • Spray a donut pan well with Pam.
  • Fill donut forms about 2/3 full (use a spoon for the easiest time)
  • Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes. (or until golden brown and pulling away from the edges slightly)
  • After a couple minutes of cooling, flip them out on to a cooling rack.

GLAZE

  • In a food processor puree the blueberries, add the powdered sugar, and puree until blended well. If needed, add additional powdered sugar.
  • With a spoon, or by dipping the donut into the icing, spread a generous amount of icing on each donut and place on a rack or parchment paper to drip.

Notes

Tips:

  • Flour Measuring: For accuracy, spoon the flour into the measuring cup and level it off without compacting.
  • Mixing: Mix wet and dry ingredients until just combined to avoid overmixing, which can make the donuts tough.
  • Baking: Don't open the oven door too early to prevent the donuts from collapsing.
  • Glazing: Let the donuts cool completely before glazing to prevent the icing from melting off.
