  • 1 cup Blueberries Fresh or frozen; do not thaw if using frozen.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather all your ingredients and prepare your tools, such as a mixing bowl, whisk, and donut molds.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted vegan butter, almond or oat milk, baking soda, baking powder, sugar, and vanilla extract until frothy.
  3. Gradually sift in the flour, mixing gently until just combined. The batter should be thick yet smooth.
  4. Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  5. Grease your donut molds, then fill each mold about 3/4 full with the prepared batter.
  6. Bake for approximately 20 minutes, checking for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center.
  7. Let the donuts cool in the molds for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Whisk together powdered sugar and milk for the glaze, then drizzle over the cooled donuts.
