Ingredients (for 12 servings):
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Cooking Tips:
- Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor.
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened before mixing it with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
- Don't overmix the batter, or the donuts will be tough.
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a donut pan with cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract.
4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
5. Fold in the blueberries.
6. In another bowl, mix together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
7. Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each mold halfway.
8. Add a dollop of the cream cheese mixture to each mold, then top with more batter until the molds are about 3/4 full.
9. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a donut comes out clean.
10. Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
