I'm trying to take an integer as a parameter and then use recursion to double each digit in the integer.
For example doubleDigit(3487) would return 33448877.
I'm stuck because I can't figure out how I would read each number in the digit I guess.

To do this using recursion, use the modulus operator (%), dividing by 10 each time and accumulating your resulting string backwards, until you reach the base case (0), where there's nothing left to divide by. In the base case, you just return an empty string.
String doubleDigit(Integer digit) {
if (digit == 0) {
return "";
} else {
Integer thisDigit = digit % 10;
Integer remainingDigits = (digit - thisDigit) / 10;
return doubleDigit(remainingDigits) + thisDigit.toString() + thisDigit.toString();
}
}
