Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.Prep donut pans. In small bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.In larger bowl, mix milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, oil, eggs, vanilla and sugar.Add dry to wet and combine. Last step is adding the strawberries. Careful not to over mix.Pipe into pans. You can spoon it in as well, but it takes forever. I prefer to pipe. The donuts will bake fast, so keep an eye on them. Mine took about 7 minutes. I under bake them just a touch. Let them cool for just a minute or 2 before removing from pans. Then let them cool on the cooling rack.While they are cooling, mix ingredients for glaze. If you need to, add more powdered sugar or if you need to thin it down, add more lemon juice or milk.Dip donuts in glaze and let them drip down. Eat fairly soon. The glaze is delicious, but it also makes them soggy. If you plan to make these ahead, wait until the last minute to glaze.Sit back and enjoy. You deserve it!
