Ingredients

For the donuts:

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

½ cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)

¼ cup vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

¾ cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, if that’s what you have on hand)

For the glaze:

1 cup powdered sugar

1 tablespoon almond milk (or any plant-based milk)

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan or lightly spray it with cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the almond milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar. Stir to combine.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.
  5. Fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them too much.
  6. Spoon the batter into the donut pan, filling each cavity about ¾ full. If you don’t have a donut pan, you can also use a muffin pan and make donut holes or muffins.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a donut comes out clean. Let the donuts cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
  8. For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, almond milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and thick.
  9. Once the donuts have cooled, dip the tops into the glaze or drizzle the glaze over the donuts for a light coating.

Notes

You can replace the blueberries with other fruits like raspberries, blackberries, or even chopped strawberries for a different flavor.

If you prefer a fried donut, you can fry the donuts in hot oil, but be cautious of the temperature to avoid overcooking.

For a citrus twist, add lemon juice and zest to the glaze instead of vanilla.
