Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries diced small

Strawberry Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 fresh strawberries hulled
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a donut pan with oil or butter; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, sugar, oil, sour cream, and vanilla together until combined.
  • Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and stir until just combined. Fold in the chopped fresh strawberries.
  • Evenly transfer the batter to the donut cavies and fill to about 3/4 full. I find it super easy to use a piping bag (or ziptop baggie with a corner snipped) but a spoon works just fine too.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the thickest part of the donut comes out mostly clean. Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • To make the strawberry glaze, add the strawberries to a blender and liquify. Transfer to a small bowl, and add the powdered sugar and lemon zest if using. Whisk together until smooth, adding milk or additional powdered sugar to desired consistency.
  • When the donuts are cool, turn them upside down and dredge the top in the strawberry glaze. You can spoon the glaze too if you prefer. If you want to add sprinkles, now is the time, or coarse sugar is nice too.

Notes

To Store:

The donuts are best on the day they are made. If you have any leftovers, store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
