Directions

CREAM together granulated sugar and butter, in a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract and salt. Combine well. Scrape the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula. Fold in the blueberries.
ADD the flour and baking powder. This is a sticky dough. Turn out to a floured work surface. Use a rolling pin to roll out to about 1/2-inch thickness. Lightly flour a doughnut cutter and use it to cut out the doughnuts. Place them on a parchment lined half sheet pans. Line a baking sheet with several layers of paper towels and set aside.
ADD about 3-inches of canola oil, in a large, heavy-duty pot. Heat to a temperature of 375° F. Drop about 4 doughnuts into the oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until lightly golden brown. Remove the doughnuts from the oil and allow to drain on the paper towels.
COMBINE the glaze ingredients, in a small/medium bowl. Dip the doughnuts into the glaze on both sides. Let some glaze drip off before placing the doughnuts onto a baking rack, placed over a parchment lined sheet pan. This will help catch the extra glaze. Let dry and enjoy.
