Gluten Free Lemon Blueberry Donuts are fresh, sweet morsels of deliciousness. These donuts are baked, moist and dense with a lemon glaze. Perfect for dunking in your morning coffee.
I am a little bleary eyed this morning because I had to stay up and watch Grammys.
Well, I didn’t have to, but I had to you, you know what I mean. I loved the Lionel Richie tribute and of course Adel was amazing as always, and Stevie Wonder was outstanding.
After hearing all those Lionel songs, I think my Spotify channel will be turned to Lionel for the rest of the week, I just love all his songs. Did you watch? What was your favorite part?
I think I have spring fever, I have been on a berry kick the last week. I don’t think I am alone, the grocery store here was completely empty of all fresh berries on Sunday. Thankfully my hubby made a run to Costco and snagged a big box of blueberries for me.
Those berries along with some fresh lemon I created these baked gluten free lemon blueberry donuts. Super moist and dense with loads of bright fresh flavor. These donuts are delicious with or without the glaze, so if you are against using confectioners sugar don’t worry you won’t be disappointed with this recipe without it.
