Blueberry Lemon Donuts
Description
Blueberry Lemon Donuts combine flour, baking powder, salt, and fresh blueberries into a batter enriched with buttermilk, lemon juice, lemon zest, vegetable oil, melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. The batter is spooned into greased donut pans and baked until a toothpick comes out clean, producing cakey donuts with a soft crumb and burst of blueberry flavor.
The glaze, made from powdered sugar, lemon zest, and fresh lemon juice, is poured over the cooled donuts, creating a glossy citrus coating that enhances the lemon flavor. This glazing adds a sweet and tangy surface that contrasts the donut's tender interior.
These donuts are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored a short time if kept covered. They bring a balance of blueberry sweetness and fresh lemon brightness in an approachable baked treat format.
