How to make baked blueberry donuts with lemon glaze

I’ve always wanted to make donuts but the frying always put me off from the idea. However, when I learned about baked donuts, well, that was a game changer and every since I will make a batch of baked donuts. This recipe in particular, has proved a favorite among everyone I have given them to. Baked blueberry donuts with a lemon glaze, a very lemony taste.

Trifles are a great, light dessert for the summer full of fruit and cream. It’s great in the summer because that’s usually when we get fresh fruit. This year peaches were really good so I tried a peach and strawberry trifle. Usually there is some alcohol in a trifle. The English are always trying to get some alcohol into their cooking where ever they can! All the tea and biscuits you associate with the English and not a lot of tea in their cooking. Strange. Anyway, I decided to use tea instead of alcohol in this recipe. Normally you’d soak the sponge cake in some kind of alcohol but in this recipe I decided to use tea. In this case I chose a Peach tea I bought this summer in PEI but any tea could be used! The idea is to get some tea flavour in there.
