Once brown on both sides, scoop out with a slotted spoon, on some paper towels to drain. Once cooled, roll the donuts in the castor sugar, make a hole at the one end of the donut with a sharp knife or the tip of the pastry nozzle, and fill with the roasted blueberry pastry cream. Roasted blueberry pastry cream Preheat oven to 175°C/350°F, place the washed blueberries on a parchment paper-lined baking tray, drizzle with the maple syrup and then bake for 10-15 minutes until gooey. Leave to cool before blending the rest of the pastry cream ingredients, pour into a saucepan on medium and stir until thickened, add more sweetness if desired. Leave to cool before scooping into a pastry bag fitted with a wide tip nozzle to fit into the donut. Fill with the pastry cream, and store with the pastry cream filling facing up so it does not leak out. Serve at room temperature, best to serve fresh the day the donuts have been made.
