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.

    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!

    Arby’s Orange Cream Shake Is Back — The Seasonal Return That Fans Mark Their Calendar For

    Milkshakes are one of the more calorie-dense items on any fast food menu, so sizing down is the easiest way to enjoy the experience without overdoing it. Ordering a small rather than a large shaves significant calories while still delivering the full flavor experience — the taste is identical, just in a smaller format. Pairing it with a lighter entrée like Arby’s turkey sandwich rather than a heavier roast beef combo is another easy way to keep the overall meal more balanced while still treating yourself to the seasonal shake you’ve been waiting for.

    The Bread That Built Civilizations

    Whole grain sourdough bread — made with unrefined flour and long fermentation — is nutritionally significantly superior to industrially produced white bread. The fermentation process breaks down phytic acid, an antinutrient in grains that inhibits the absorption of minerals including iron, zinc, and magnesium, making the nutrients in whole grain flour more bioavailable in sourdough than in bread made with commercial yeast. Long fermentation also produces organic acids that lower the glycemic response of the bread, making sourdough one of the lower-glycemic bread options available despite being made from the same basic ingredients as higher-glycemic alternatives.

    Jalapeño Popper Roasted Potato Salad

    Roasting potatoes rather than boiling them preserves more of their potassium, vitamin B6, and natural flavor without adding significant calories. Baby potatoes are naturally rich in fiber and complex carbohydrates, and using a combination of mayonnaise and sour cream rather than mayo alone reduces the fat content of the dressing while adding calcium and a pleasant tang.
