Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon melted butter or oil
- 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
- In a separate bowl, combine the egg, cottage cheese, vanilla extract, and melted butter or oil. Mix until incorporated.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until a thick batter forms. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the fresh or frozen blueberries.
- Scoop the batter into small, evenly sized portions and arrange them in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each portion.
- Air fry until the donut holes are lightly golden on the outside and cooked through in the center. Cooking time and temperature depend on your air fryer and portion size; check the centers before removing.
- Allow the donut holes to cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
- Blend the cottage cheese before mixing if you prefer a smoother texture.
- Add frozen blueberries directly without thawing.
- Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary.
