Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 2 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup lemon curd (homemade or store-bought)
Instructions
- Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
- Whisk together milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Gently fold in blueberries.
- Using a small scoop or spoon, form the batter into mini balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Flatten slightly if desired.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy-bottomed skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry the donut holes in batches for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
- Drain on paper towels and let cool slightly.
- Dip the donut holes into warm lemon curd or spoon lemon curd over them. Garnish with powdered sugar or lemon zest if desired.
Notes
- Maintain a steady oil temperature for evenly cooked, golden-brown donut holes.
- Use fresh blueberries to prevent discoloration during frying.
- Frozen blueberries can be used if fresh are unavailable; ensure they are thawed and drained.
