How to Make Lemon Blueberry Donuts – 1 WW SmartPoint
Making these WW SmartPoints desserts couldn’t be easier. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown to ensure your donuts come out perfectly every time:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Get your donut pan ready by spraying it generously with nonstick cooking spray.
Prepare the batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the box of lemon cake mix with the Sprite Zero. Stir until the mixture is smooth and frothy. The Sprite adds an airy texture to the donuts, making them feel light without any added fat.
Fill the donut pan: Pour or spoon the batter into your prepared donut molds. Fill each one about ¾ full to allow room for the donuts to rise.
Add the blueberries: Drop 3-4 blueberries into each donut mold. Gently press them into the batter to ensure they’re evenly distributed throughout the donut.
Bake: Bake the donuts in the preheated oven for about 15-25 minutes. The baking time will vary depending on the size of your donut pan. Mini donuts typically take closer to 15 minutes, while larger ones may take up to 25 minutes. Check frequently and use a toothpick to test for doneness—when it comes out clean, the donuts are ready.
Cool and enjoy: Once baked, let the donuts cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
