Carly Morgan is the blogger behind Ever Clever Mom. She has two kids, including one with a severe food allergy, so she’s spending a lot of time these days teaching herself to make everything she used to buy at bakeries and restaurants. Her kitchen is always a mess. And we were lucky enough to have her share a yummy recipe with us this month!
Lemon Lavender Donuts with Honey Buttermilk Glaze
1 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 lemons (whole thing, not just the juice)
1/2 cup greek yogurt
1 large egg
1 cup powdered sugar
2 Tbsp buttermilk
2 Tbsp honey
Heat your oven to 350 degrees and grease a 6 capacity donut pan. Zest one of the lemons in a medium bowl. Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together.
Juice both lemons into a small bowl. Add the greek yogurt and the egg and whisk together. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry and stir until well mixed.
Fill the donut pan with the batter and bake for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of one of the donuts comes out clean. Let cool slightly before removing to a rack.
Once the donuts are cool enough to handle, you can glaze them. To make the glaze, add the buttermilk and the honey to the powdered sugar and whisk together. Dip the tops of the donuts into the glaze and then let drip dry on the cooling rack.
