Directions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your doughnut pan with cooking spray or a little melted butter.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the melted salted butter, whole milk, plain Greek yogurt, large egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.

  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries and blueberry jam.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared doughnut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl for the topping.
  9. Cool the doughnuts for about 5 minutes, then brush with melted butter and dip into the cinnamon sugar mixture.
