Best Baked Blueberry Donuts Recipe

This delicious baked blueberry donuts recipe is packed with fruity flavor, they’re super fluffy and topped with a blueberry vanilla glaze!

 

I love these pretty donuts – the fresh blueberries inside create beautiful pops of color and flavor, and the frosting makes these donuts irresistible.

 

These donuts are dairy free, eggless and vegan and made with just a few simple ingredients – baking from scratch has never been easier.

 

The flavors in these donuts are bold, tangy, fruity, sweet and the perfect rich, blueberry-vanilla combination!

To achieve that pretty blueberry colored and flavored frosting, I used some blueberry powder – it’s a fun, natural and healthy way to flavor and color frostings and my personal favorite. I also have a similar recipe for Vegan Strawberry Powdered Donuts using the same technique!

 

There’s tons of brands that sell the powder with the fruit as the only ingredient!

 

You can always leave it off and just use a vanilla glaze if you’d like, but I love using fruit powders or spirulina powders these days in my frostings and smoothies!

 

You could also add some lemon juice to the frosting and use less milk for a lemon glaze.

Making vegan blueberry donuts that are baked instead of fried makes these a great option to treat-yourself with!

 

Also, the addition of fruit is always great, but overall these donuts are indulgent and the perfect tangy-sweet treat.

 

It’s so easy to make your own baked donuts at home – the batter comes together in no time and they bake right up – no deep frying or yeast needed.

 

This recipe is all made in one bowl and then the frosting just needs to be mixed up real quick – the most fuss-free donut recipe ever! Try my Vegan Rainbow Sprinkle Donuts for more!

How to Make Vegan Blueberry Donuts

Making the Homemade Donut Batter

To start making your baked blueberry doughnuts, start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F and greasing a donut pan.

 

Then mix in a tablespoon of flour into your blueberries and mix to evenly coat then set aside – this will help there be berries throughout the donut and not just berries on the bottoms.

 

Then mix together your wet ingredients with the sugar until smooth, and add in the dry and mix to combine (but don’t overmix).

Baking Blueberry Doughnuts

Add the blueberries and fold into the batter.

 

Now, if you have a piping bag or a Ziploc, place it into a cup and fold the top edges over. 

 

Add the batter in and pipe into the donut pan almost all the way to the top.

 

If you don’t have the bags, you can also just spoon this in – it’s just a little more work!

 

Then wet your fingers and smooth out the tops a bit.

 

Bake for 10-14 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the donuts comes out clean without any wet batter on it.

Making the Blueberry Donut Glaze

Let the donuts cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan and then carefully transfer to a cooling rack.

 

You might need to run a butter knife around the edges to help them come out.

 

Mix together your blueberry vanilla glaze until smooth and then generously spoon over the completely cooled donuts and enjoy!

Feel free to add sprinkles if you’d like to make these donuts even cuter – small rainbow sprinkles would be great, or use anything you’d like.

STORING

You can store these blueberry donuts in an airtight container for 3-4 days. If your home is on the warmer side I’d recommend keeping them in the fridge to avoid any melted frosting.

 

You can also freeze the unfrosted donuts for up to 3 months, simply let thaw on the counter and then frost and enjoy!
