I love combining lemon and blueberry together. That is exactly what I did to make these Lemon Blueberry Donuts. In addition to adding lemon and blueberry, I also added a creamy coconut frosting. Coconut also goes very well with lemon and blueberry. You can never have too many donut recipes, right? Especially when they are healthy donut recipes. My kids were trying to sneak bites of these lemon blueberry donuts as I was trying to take the picture! The life of a food blogger mom! If you also like lemon and blueberry, you may also like my lemon blueberry ice cream or my lemon blueberry cookies.

This healthy donut recipe is vegan and gluten free. I used fresh blueberries in my recipe, but I bet you could also use frozen blueberries. Just let them thaw before using in this recipe. I think this healthy donut recipe would also be good with strawberries or raspberries!

One of my most favorite snacks is an apple with almond butter. The flavors were just made for each other. So these Apple Almond Energy Bites were inspired by that snack. These healthy energy bites are super easy to make and they have no added sugar except for the sugar in the apple I used.

I thought they were plenty sweet, but if you like things a little sweeter, you can always add a couple dates or some maple syrup. If you like these, then you may also like my 3 Ingredient Energy Bites and my Cherry Chocolate Energy Bites.
