Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon lemon zest

1/2 cup buttermilk (or plain yogurt)

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed)

Optional: powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan with non-stick spray.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and lemon zest until well combined.

In another bowl, blend the buttermilk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Using a piping bag or a spoon, fill each donut cavity about 3/4 full with the batter.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

If desired, dust the cooled donuts with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
