These simple Baked Blueberry Donuts are a burst of summer flavor in every bite. Made with simple pantry ingredients and fresh blueberries, this baked donut recipe is utterly delicious all season. To take them up a notch, we've coated them in cinnamon sugar.
Preheat the oven to 350° F. Grease two 6-cup donut pans or a 12-cup muffin pan.
In a bowl, whisk together the oil, milk, yogurt, egg, vanilla, and sugar until combined. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Mix until just combined. Stir in the blueberries.
Spoon the batter into a ziplock bag or pastry bag and snip off the corner. Pipe the batter into each cavity, filling to ⅔ full. Bake for 10 minutes. If using a muffin tin, bake for 10 to 12 minutes.
Let cool for a couple of minutes before inverting the donuts onto a cooling rack. The berries can stometimes stick the pan so carefully run a knife around the edges to help them release.
Melt 3 to 4 tablespoons butter and brush over the donuts. Then coat with cinnamon sugar in a shallow bowl or carefully tossed in a bag. Repeat with remaining donuts.
