I love these Vegan Blueberry Donuts! Instead of being fried, these donuts are baked. You can also make these into muffins, but I like the donuts personally better. Also, I recommend you use a donut pan for your donuts. I hope you like this recipe a lot and Enjoy!

Vegan Blueberry Donuts Recipe

STEP 1: Add 3 tablespoons of flax seed and 9 tablespoons of water into a small bowl then mix together. Let it sit for 5 minutes before continuing.
STEP 2: Vigorously (I use an electric hand mixer) mix together the vegan butter and raw cane sugar. Then mix in the flax seed and water from Step 1 along with the vanilla and a pinch of salt.
STEP 3: Get a large bowl and whisk together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
STEP 4: Interchange adding the flour mixture and the 1 cup of almond milk, till there is none of the ingredients left.
STEP 5: Add the 2 cups of blueberries and mix them in. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes.

Blueberry turnovers are my very favorite blueberry recipe and this is the best version I’ve ever come up with. Feel free to substitute the ingredients for what you like best as I tend to use slightly “healthier” alternatives to normal baking ingredients. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do!

Blueberry Turnover Ingredients

2 cups fresh blueberries (I used berries from my family’s blueberry farm)
2 tablespoons of cornstarch (If you want it thicker, use more tablespoons of cornstarch. I used 4 tablespoons)
Some all purpose flour for dusting the parchment paper
1 apple (I used applesauce)
2/3rds cup sugar (I used raw cane sugar)
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 package of empanada dough / pastry rounds
1/4 cup of turbinado sugar
1 tablespoon of butter
1 pinch of salt

Blueberry Turnover Recipe

STEP 1: Add 1/2 cup of blueberries, 2/3rds cup of sugar, all lemon zest, squeeze all lemon juice, vanilla extract, butter, and pinch of salt to a medium saucepan and over medium heat. Make sure your parents turn on the heat. Cook the berries, smashing them with a fork or potato masher( a spoon didn’t work that well) until they start to break down and release their juices. Now, add your cornstarch. Keep mixing on medium heat until you get the consistency you want.

STEP 2 : Remove the heat, toss it to a bowl and add the apple/applesauce and the remainder of blueberries. Let it cool a little bit.

STEP 3: Lay the pastry rounds on parchment paper over baking sheet with a dusting of flour.

STEP 4: Place 1 spoonful of filling into each pastry round. Next, fold the pastry round and crimp (push it) together. Place it on the lined baking sheet. Keep repeating this, until all your pastry rounds were used. Now, whisk or quickly stir the egg. This will make your egg wash. Brush all of them with this, then sprinkle the turbinado sugar and cut small vents into the pies. Do it in this exact order, or else your turnovers won’t turn out as good.

STEP 5: Pre heat over to 350 degrees. Bake until golden brown for about 20-25 minutes.
