Matcha Doughnuts

Ingredients

Doughnuts

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cake flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2/3 cup light brown sugar , packed
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons matcha
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature , beaten
  • 1/2 cup whole milk , room temperature
  • 1/2 cup full-fat sour cream , room temperature
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter , melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Cooking spray for coating pan

Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon matcha powder
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • Rose petals for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Doughnuts

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF. Lightly coat doughnut pan with cooking spray.
  • Add all dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl and whisk together. Add remaining ingredients to dry ingredients and whisk until just incorporated.
  • Use a pastry bag fitted with a large round tip (or a large ziplock bag with one corner snipped off) to pipe the batter into doughnut pan molds. Fill each mold about 3/4 full.
  • Bake doughnuts for 10–12 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean and the doughnuts spring back when lightly pressing your finger into them. Let cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Let cool completely before glazing.

Glaze

  • Whisk together powdered sugar and matcha powder in a small bowl (similar to the size of a doughnut). Add milk and whisk until smooth. Dip each doughnut in the glaze and let the excess glaze drip off. Garnish with rose petals.
