Fresh blueberry doughnuts recipe: Up your doughnut game with this healthier version of baked blueberry doughnuts that are sure to be a breakfast hit.

Fresh Blueberry Doughnuts Recipe

For Christmas last year I really wanted a doughnut pan.

My boys LOVE doughnuts, and I thought I could put together some relatively healthy recipes for them by baking doughnuts instead of frying them.

You can imagine I was pretty stoked to receive this pan (affiliate link) Christmas morning!

Baking doughnuts in the pan allows for less prep (no making dough ahead of time!) and allows me to incorporate various fruits into the dough.

This recipe incorporates fresh blueberries and Greek yogurt, both delicious and healthy ingredients.

I did make a glaze for the doughnuts, but that can always be left off.

This is a wonderful egg-free doughnut recipe! Excited to share it with my daughter, as my grandson is allergic! Blessed to have you at Tuesday Turn About!

Yum! I've always been put off making doughnuts because of all the frying so the thought of making them in the oven is perfect. I just need to get myself some doughnut pans.

I haven't had donuts in a long time. These look really delish - perfect with a cup of coffee. Thanks for sharing at Fiesta Friday!
