1
To make the doughnuts:
2
Preheat oven to 425 F and coat a 6-count doughnut pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
3
In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder and sugar. Stir dry ingredients with a spoon.
4
Add in Greek yogurt and the egg. Mix to combine. Stir in 1 tablespoon of milk and then the melted butter.
5
Measure out the baking soda and pour it into a small bowl and add the vinegar. Stir together and add in 1 teaspoon of lemon extract, then stir in the lemon zest. Pour that mixture into the doughnut batter and stir together to combine.
6
Using a pastry bag or spoon, fill each doughnut mold half to two-thirds of the way full. Bake for 10-12 minutes, then let them cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the pan.
7
To make the glaze:
8
Measure powdered sugar and add to a small bowl. Add in 1 teaspoon of milk, then pour in the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of lemon extract. Stir together with a spoon to combine. If your glaze is not runny enough, just add more milk.
9
Once the doughnuts have finished cooling, drizzle with lemon glaze until all are coated.

Serve and enjoy!
