Wild Blueberry Donuts – Soft, Fruity, and Glazed to Perfection

There’s something magical about baking donuts at home—especially when they’re filled with juicy wild blueberries and topped with a gorgeous vanilla-blueberry glaze.

These Wild Blueberry Donuts are soft, tender, and sweet enough to feel indulgent without being over the top.

Why I Love This Recipe

Baked, not fried – Lighter and easier with no messy oil.

Packed with blueberries – Bursts of fruit in every bite.

Homemade glaze – Real blueberry juice gives color and flavor.

Quick and easy – From bowl to oven in under 10 minutes.

Perfect for brunch – A sweet, bakery-style treat.

What You’ll Need (Ingredient Highlights)

Butter – Adds richness and helps keep the donuts soft.

Sugar – Sweetens the batter and balances the tartness of the berries.

Whole milk + egg – Classic combo for tender baked goods.

Vanilla extract – Used in both the batter and glaze for double flavor.

All-purpose flour – Gives structure while keeping things light.

Baking powder – Helps the donuts rise perfectly in the oven.

Wild blueberries – Use fresh or frozen; they add natural sweetness and color.

Powdered sugar – For a smooth, glossy glaze.

Pro Tips Before You Start

Use a piping bag – It gives a cleaner shape and even baking.

Don’t overmix – Gently fold to avoid dense donuts.

Frozen blueberries work too – But expect a purple-tinged batter!

Strain the glaze – For a smooth, silky finish.

Let donuts cool completely – So the glaze sets beautifully.

How to Make Wild Blueberry Donuts

Step 1: Prep the Oven and Pan

Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC). Lightly butter a 6-hole donut tin.

Fit a piping bag with a large round tip and set aside.

Step 2: Melt the Butter

In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter for 20–30 seconds until fully melted.

Step 3: Mix the Wet Ingredients

Whisk in sugar, milk, egg, and vanilla until smooth.

Step 4: Sift and Fold in the Dry Ingredients

Sift flour into the bowl using a fine mesh sieve.

Add baking powder and salt, then gently fold the mixture halfway.

Step 5: Add Blueberries

Add wild blueberries and fold just until evenly distributed. Avoid overmixing.

Step 6: Fill the Donut Pan

Spoon the batter into the prepared piping bag and pipe into each donut cavity.

Smooth tops with a damp fingertip.

Step 7: Bake

Bake for 13–15 minutes until donuts are lightly golden and spring back to the touch.

Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8: Make the Glaze

Microwave 2 tablespoons of blueberries for 15–20 seconds.

Mash, then strain to extract juice.

Step 9: Glaze the Donuts

In a bowl, sift powdered sugar and add vanilla.

Stir in blueberry juice, ½ teaspoon at a time, until glaze is thick and pourable.

Spoon glaze over cooled donuts. Let set for at least 20 minutes.

What to Serve It With

Fresh brewed coffee – The perfect morning pairing.

Greek yogurt and fruit – For a lighter breakfast balance.

Iced tea or lemonade – Refreshing with fruity flavors.

Brunch spread – Pair with quiche, eggs, and other sweet bakes.

More berries – Serve with fresh blueberries or strawberries.

Variations / Substitutions

Swap the berries – Try raspberries or chopped cherries.

Add lemon zest – For a citrusy twist.

Use dairy-free milk – Almond or oat milk works well.

Mini donut pans – Make bite-sized treats, just reduce bake time.

Skip the glaze – Dust with powdered sugar for a quicker finish.

Storage & Leftovers

Room temp – Store in an airtight container for 2 days.

Fridge – Keeps fresh for 4–5 days. Glaze may firm up more.

Freeze (unglazed) – Wrap and freeze for up to 2 months. Glaze after thawing.

Reheat gently – Microwave for 10 seconds to soften.

FAQs

Can I use frozen blueberries?
Yes! No need to thaw, but expect the batter to turn purple.

Do I need a donut pan?
Yes, for this recipe. You can try muffin tins, but they won’t have the classic donut shape.

What’s the texture like?
Soft and cake-like, with juicy bursts of fruit.

Can I double the recipe?
Absolutely—use two pans or bake in batches.

Is the glaze overly sweet?
It’s balanced—just enough sweetness to complement the berries.

Can I make the glaze ahead?
Yes, but stir before using. It may thicken as it sits.

How do I prevent donuts from sticking?
Grease the pan well and let them cool before removing.

Final Thoughts

These Wild Blueberry Donuts are the kind of treat that makes your kitchen feel like a bakery.

With their golden crumb, juicy fruit, and dreamy glaze, they’re just as good with morning coffee as they are for an afternoon pick-me-up.

Make a batch once, and you’ll want to keep them in your weekend rotation.
