Baked Whole Wheat Blueberry Donuts w/ Lemon Glaze

It's no secret donuts are one of my favorite treats. Dunkin Donuts has this new red velvet cake donut with cream cheese drizzle that is to die for. My mouth is salivating just thinking about them. Normally Sunday mornings are our day to indulge a little and my husband makes a run for a dozen and iced coffees. I ran acrossed this recipe for Whole Wheat Blueberry Donuts and decided to try them instead of our usual Dunkin Donuts.

I generally have blueberries on hand so they were a good choice for fruit, but I'm sure you could use strawberries, raspberries or any other berry you fancy. My twins eat so many blueberries that I keep telling them they are going to turn inot a blueberry like that girl from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. This is usually where I get all sorts of laughter from them. Anyway, back to these blueberry donuts.

I love the fact that they are baked and not fried. Ummm, hello? Can we say fewer calories? I think so!

 

I was afraid they were going to taste like cardboard being whole wheat and all. I was delightfully surprised though. They were actually pretty good.

 

 

I wish I could say they were a big hit with my family, but unfortunately not everything I enjoy goes over well with them. My daughter did not like the glaze and my oldest son only ate half of his. This is just going to be one of those recipes that I will only make every so often since I was the only one who really liked them.
