Optional: cinnamon, lemon peel, lemon slices

Instructions:

  1. Warm your milk gently in the microwave, add tea and let it steep and infuse for about 30 minutes, then strain.

  3. Combine dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and set aside.

  4. In a separate bowl combine wet ingredients: egg, yogurt, lemon juice, marmalade, steeped milk, vanilla extract, oil, and sugar. Mix well. 

  5. Using spatula gently mix wet and dry ingredients just until combined (don’t over mix). 

  6. Using a small spoon carefully add batter to donut pan. Fill each donut cavity about 3/4 full.

  7. Bake your donuts for about 10-12 minutes. Let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes than gently transfer to a cooling rack.

  8. In a medium saucepan, bring the milk to a boil, then turn off the heat, add in the tea leaves and let the tea infuse for 10 minutes. Once the 10 minutes are up, strain the tea into a bowl. Add the rest of ingredients for the glaze and whisk together. 

  9. Dip donuts into the glaze and put them on a cooling rack to dry. 

  10. Feel free to decorate your donuts with lemon peel/slices or dust with a cinnamon.
