Description

Air Fryer Blueberry Donuts are a delightful treat that combines the flavors of fresh blueberries in a light and fluffy donut, glazed to perfection.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 130 grams all-purpose flour
  • 100 grams granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 80 milliliters whole milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 75 grams fresh blueberries, tossed with 1 teaspoon flour
  • 90 grams powdered sugar
  • 22 milliliters milk (for glaze)
  • 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 160°C for 3 to 5 minutes.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to evenly distribute.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  4. Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined to maintain a tender crumb.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries coated in flour, ensuring even distribution without overmixing.
  6. Lightly grease silicone donut molds. Spoon the batter into the prepared molds, filling each cavity about three-quarters full.
  7. Arrange the molds in the air fryer basket. Cook at 160°C for 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden and springy to the touch.
  8. Allow donuts to cool in the molds for several minutes before unmolding to maintain shape.
  9. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  10. Dip each cooled donut into the glaze or drizzle over the top, then set aside briefly before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure to coat blueberries with flour to prevent them from sinking in the batter.
  • Adjust the cooking time slightly based on your air fryer’s performance.
  • Donuts are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for 1-2 days.
