Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • Optional: 1 cup powdered sugar + 2 tbsp lemon juice for glaze

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a doughnut pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, milk, melted butter, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
  4. Gently fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Fold in blueberries gently to avoid breaking them.
  6. Spoon batter into prepared doughnut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 12–15 minutes or until tops spring back when lightly pressed.
  8. Cool in pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
  9. If desired, mix powdered sugar and lemon juice for glaze, then drizzle over cooled doughnuts.

Notes

For best results, use room temperature ingredients. Keep blueberries frozen until just before mixing to reduce color bleeding.
