Blueberry Cake Donuts Recipes

BLUEBERRY CAKE DONUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). Spray donut pans with nonstick cooking spray and set aside
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose and cake flours, baking soda, and baking powder.
• Add the whole eggs and egg yolk to the mixer and cream until blended, about 1 minute, stopping to scrape the sides as needed.
• Alternately add the flour mixture and the buttermilk in 3 stages, mixing on medium-low and stopping to scrape down the sides between additions.
• Turn mixer to low and gently stir in the blueberries, mixing just until evenly incorporated and the batter is a nice shade of blue/purple.
• Fill a large piping bag (or large ziplock bag with a corner cut off) with the batter.
• Pipe batter into each donut well until each is about ⅔ of the way full (do not fill to the top).
• Bake in preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes or until the donuts spring back when poked. Allow to cool completely before glazing.
• In a big bowl, combine all the glaze ingredients and whisk together. Adjust the consistency by adding either milk to thin one teaspoon at a time or powdered sugar to thicken one tablespoon at a time.
• Once donuts are completely cool, dip each donut top and bottom into the glaze, shaking off any excess, and placing on a wire rack set over a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

BLUEBERRY CAKE DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, cream together granulated sugar and butter. Add the eggs, sour cream, vanilla extract and salt. Combine well. Scrape the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula. Add the flour and baking powder. Fold in the blueberries.
• This is a sticky dough. Turn out to a floured work surface. Use a rolling pin to roll out to about 1/2-inch thickness. Lightly flour a doughnut cutter and use it to cut out the doughnuts. Place them on a parchment lined half sheet pans.
• Line a baking sheet with several layers of paper towels and set aside. In a large, heavy-duty pot, add about 3-inches of canola oil. Heat to a temperature of 375 degrees F. Drop about 4 doughnuts into the oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until lightly golden brown. Remove the doughnuts from the oil and allow to drain on the paper towels. In a small/medium bowl, combine the glaze ingredients.
• Dip the doughnuts into the glaze on both sides. Let some glaze drip off before placing the doughnuts onto a baking rack, placed over a parchment lined sheet pan. This will help catch the extra glaze. Let dry and enjoy.
