2. In another bowl, whisk milk, yogurt, egg, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
3. Combine wet and dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

6. Scoop small spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil and fry 2–3 minutes per side until golden.

Use frozen blueberries if fresh aren’t available—don’t thaw them.
Add a simple lemon glaze for extra sweetness.
These doughnuts taste best fresh but can be reheated in the air fryer.
