Combining wet and dry ingredients correctly is crucial for achieving the perfect texture in your Frozen Yogurt Berry Cheesecake Donuts. Start by mixing your dry ingredients—flour, baking powder, and any spices—thoroughly in a separate bowl. This ensures that the leavening agents are evenly distributed. Next, prepare your wet ingredients, which typically include Greek yogurt, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil or butter.

Ingredients
  

For the Donuts:

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup milk

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon melted coconut oil or butter

For the Berry Cheesecake Filling:

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen, like blueberries, raspberries, and chopped strawberries)

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (for a tangy twist)

For Topping:

1 cup berry compote or sauce (optional)

Fresh berries for garnish

Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan with cooking spray.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil until smooth.

        Combine Mixtures: Gradually incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.

          Fill the Pan: Transfer the donut batter to a piping bag (or a zip-top bag with a corner snipped off) and pipe the batter into the donut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full.

            Bake: Bake the donuts in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until they’re lightly golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

              Cool Down: Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Mix in the vanilla extract and Greek yogurt until creamy, then fold in the mixed berries gently.

                  Pipe the Filling: Once the donuts are completely cooled, use a knife or a piping tip to make a small hole in the side of each donut. Fill a piping bag with the cheesecake filling and pipe it into the donuts until you feel a slight resistance.

                    Serve: Drizzle with the berry compote or sauce, sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired, and adorn with fresh berries on top for an extra touch of color and flavor.

                      Enjoy: These delightful Frozen Yogurt Berry Cheesecake Donuts can be served immediately or stored in the fridge if you want to chill them for a refreshing treat.
