Baked Raspberry Donuts Delightful and Easy Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 0.5 tsp baking soda
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan with non-stick cooking spray or lightly with butter.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract until well mixed.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Gently fold in the fresh raspberries, taking care not to crush them too much.
- Using a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off, pipe the batter into each donut mold, filling them about two-thirds full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the donuts spring back when lightly pressed and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the glaze, in a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar and lemon juice. Stir until smooth and drizzle consistency is achieved. If it’s too thick, add a little more lemon juice.
- Once the donuts are cool, dip the tops in the glaze and place them on the wire rack to let the excess drip off. Garnish with extra raspberries on top.
💡 Chef's Notes
Arrange the donuts on a beautiful platter, drizzle some extra glaze over the top and scatter fresh raspberries around for a pop of color. Dust with powdered sugar if desired for added sweetness!
