Ingredients
Lemon Poppy Seed Blueberry Donut
- 6 eggs
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 3/4 cup coconut flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 4 lemons
- small handful frozen blueberries (optional)
Blueberry Icing
- 1/2 cup frozen blueberries
- 2 tbsp coconut butter (or coconut manna)
- 1 splash lemon juice
Instructions
Lemon Poppy Seed Blueberry Donut
- Preheat the oven to 350 F and grease donut pan.
- Combine coconut flour and baking powder in a small bowl.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs until light and fluffy (2-3 minutes). Add in the flour mixture and honey and stir until well combined. Batter will be fluffy and firm. More like a dough. Or Amazon packing fill.
- Fill donut pan 1/3 full of batter and top with frozen blueberries. Fill to 2/3 full and repeat. Fill tins completely (NOTE: batter does not rise much, so the molds should be completely full) and repeat. (three total layers of blueberries)
- Bake for 25-30 minutes.
Blueberry Icing
- While donuts are cooling, thaw 1/2 cup of frozen blueberries. Do not drain.
- Mash the f out of the blueberries. I used the attachment pictured for my hand mixer. I have no idea what this attachment is for, but it mashes blueberries like a real gem. Don’t be fooled by online trolls who will tell you to remove the skin from the mixture. The skin is good. The skin is plumb full of nutrients and fiber. The skin is our friend.
- Melt 1 tbsp of coconut butter (NOTE: it melts hella fast so keep your eyes on it) and mix with the blueberries.
- Once cooled, dip donuts in icing. Store finished product in fridge.
Notes
HOT TIP: This blueberry icing makes a dope and versatile topping. Don’t be bound by this recipe. Soar to new heights. Put this shit on banana bread and top with some almond butter. Mix it into your morning oatmeal and sprinkle in some cacao nibs. Blend it into your matcha latte for pure euphoria. But please, learn from me and DO NOT spill in on your shirt unless you want it to be stained forever (hey, everything has its limits).
DISCLAIMER: I live in a shit apartment with a shit oven. When I preheat my oven to 350F, I preheat my kitchen to 350F. Take all my baking times with a grain of salt!
