Two weeks ago, I saw one of my blogging friend Nami (JustOneCookBook) she made some really  mouthwatering Green Tea Donuts that triggers my craving for baked donuts. So last week after getting a new bottle of Matcha (green tea) powder and digging out my mini donut tray which hidden somewhere in the storeroom. I made some matcha donuts too!

Assorted Mini Donuts (recipe) that I made 2 years ago using Blueberry Yogurt.
I still remembered a few years back when there was a donut craze in Singapore where you can find queues everywhere outside donut outlets like Donut Factory. And during that time I even followed the craze and baked donuts with assorted toppings like what shown above.


BAKED MINI MATCHA DONUTS


I must admit these baked matcha donuts are really good especially when eaten on the day itself and since mine was really "mini" with width of only 5cm meaning 4 mini donuts = 1 normal donut size. So in a way I still can "cheat" and enjoy my favourite snacks without feeling guilty about it.


recipe adapted from JustOneCookBook.

Baking Clip:

A short clip on how to prepare the matcha batter for baking the donuts.

I am running out of cake sprinkles at home so I topped my donuts with raspberry, cooked chestnut and some sea salt flakes which I managed to find in my pantry. Out of the three flavour, I personally preferred the one with "sea salt flakes" because the sweetness of the donut and chocolate coating blends well with the sea salt flakes. Once again, thanks Nami for this wonderful recipe. Do check out her blog for more easy homecook Japanese food and bakes at +Namiko Chen  http://justonecookbook.com/blog/
