Step-by-Step Instructions for Glazed Lemon Donut Holes

- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, lemon juice, and melted butter until fully combined.
- In another bowl, mix together the sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and flour until evenly distributed.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, gently stirring until just combined.

- Once cooled, dip each donut hole into the glaze and place on the cooling rack to let the glaze set.
