Baked Blueberry Donuts

Healthy Fact of the Day

Blueberries are packed with antioxidants and vitamin C, making these donuts a more nutritious sweet treat. Baking instead of frying reduces oil content while maintaining that classic donut texture.

These Baked Blueberry Donuts bring bakery-style sweetness to your Sweet Sundae with their tender, cake-like texture and bursts of fresh blueberries throughout. They’re easy to make in a donut pan and perfect for weekend breakfast treats or afternoon snacks. Light, fluffy, and studded with antioxidant-rich berries, they’re a healthier twist on the classic fried version.

If you love fruity breakfast treats, you’ll also enjoy our Lemon Blueberry Breakfast Cake with its similar berry-forward flavors and moist texture. For another handheld morning favorite, try the Blueberry Buttermilk Pancake Casserole—it captures those same comforting blueberry-vanilla notes in an easy make-ahead format.

    • 0.25 teaspoon salt

    • 0.5 cup milk

    • 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted

    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    • 1 egg

    • 1 cup fresh blueberries

    Directions

    • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease a donut pan with baking spray or butter.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Walnuts provide omega-3 fatty acids and protein, adding both nutrition and satisfying crunch. Using sour cream adds moisture and tang while contributing calcium and probiotics. When you bake with whole fruit and nuts, you’re creating treats that offer more nutritional value alongside the indulgence.
