Ingredients
  

For the Donuts

  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar Coconut sugar can be used for a different taste.
  • 1 cup Whole Milk Substitute with non-dairy milk for lactose-free.
  • 1 large Egg A flax egg can be used as a substitute.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Pure vanilla is preferred.
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Gluten-free flour can be substituted.
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder Ensure it’s fresh for the best outcome.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Table Salt Sea salt can easily replace it.
  • 1 cup Wild Blueberries Fresh berries hold their shape better.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350ºF (180ºC) and grease a 6-cavity donut baking tin.
  2. Whisk together melted salted butter, granulated sugar, whole milk, large egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Sift in all-purpose flour, baking powder, and table salt; fold gently into the batter until just combined.
  4. Carefully fold in the wild blueberries, being gentle to avoid breaking them.
  5. Transfer the batter into a piping bag and fill the donut tin about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 13-15 minutes until golden brown; a toothpick should come out clean when inserted.
  7. Allow donuts to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
  8. For the glaze, heat 2 tablespoons of wild blueberries in a small pan and mash to extract juice; mix with powdered sugar.
  9. Spoon the glaze over cooled donuts and allow to set for about 20 minutes before serving.
