Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 cup sour cream (I used full-fat but think reduced fat will work fine)
• 2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg, at room temperature
• 1/4 cup fresh blueberries (be sure not too add more or they will become too soft)
• For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
• For the glaze:
• 1-2 tablespoons whole milk
• 1 cup confectioners sugar, sifted
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F).
• Generously grease a doughnut pan; set aside.
• In a large bowl whisk together the dry ingredients; set aside. In a separate bowl whisk together the sour cream, butter, and egg.
• Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry mixture - careful not to over mix! Quickly fold in blueberries.
• Spoon mixture into prepared doughnut pan, and bake for 10-11 minutes, or until the doughnuts spring back when lightly pressed. Allow doughnuts to cool a few minutes in the pan before transferring to a wire wrack to cool completely.
• Once the donuts are cooled fully, melt the butter for the cinnamon sugar coating; set aside. Mix the sugar and cinnamon together in a medium-sized bowl; set aside.
• For the Glaze: In a small bowl combine the confectioners sugar, milk, and salt; whisk smooth. The glaze should be thick but easily pourable; add more milk/sugar as needed.
• Dip the firm, completely cooled donuts in the melted butter, then roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture; repeat until all donuts have been covered.
• Drizzle a swirl of glaze on each donut and serve! These are best eaten the day they are made.
