Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
In a large bowl, mix sugar, melted butter, buttermilk, egg, sour cream, and vanilla until well combined.
Gently fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined. Carefully add frozen blueberries; cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Heat oil in a Dutch oven to 355°F (180°C). Set up a wire rack over paper towels.
Using a scoop, fry donut dough in batches for about 3 minutes until golden brown; transfer to the rack.
For the glaze, whisk powdered sugar, freeze-dried blueberry powder, milk, and blueberry extract until smooth; warm slightly if needed.
Dunk each donut into the glaze and let excess drip off before serving.
