Matcha Doughnuts. Gluten-free and Dairy-free Recipe.

A grassy and floral matcha doughnut with a fun bright green flavor. This will be your new favorite matcha treat during the summer!

I’ve prepared two different donut recipes for you. Matcha doughnut with matcha glazing and the chocolate doughnut with matcha glazing. Chocolate and matcha are really good friends.

These donuts are lighter than regular donuts, baked not fried, and so easy to make. They are made with coconut oil and coconut yogurt are perfect for any coconut lover. If you’re vegan or lactose intolerant, coconut yogurt can be incredibly useful for baking!

I used all-purpose gluten-free flour mix, but regular flour can also be used in this recipe.

Matcha can be referred as finely powdered green tea. How is matcha different from regular green tea leaves?

 Matcha plants are shade grown for 3 weeks prior to harvest, preserving the maximum amount of chlorophyll in each leaf and increasing the amino acid, L-theanine content.

Matcha is very high in chlorophyll, which is known for helping support the immune system and good circulation.
Unlike steeped green tea, with matcha you are consuming the entire leaf and all its benefits. The nutrients in matcha are easily absorbed by the body and it’s perfect for use in lattes, smoothies, ice cream, raw treats, and baking.

MatchaMatcha Organic Culinary Grade has beautiful green color and delicate, mellow taste with no bitter aftertaste, that works perfectly for doughnuts and glaze.

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 180С.

  3. Coat 2 (6-cavity) donut pans with cooking spray, one pan is for matcha doughnuts and one for chocolate doughnuts. Spoon batter evenly into 12 cavities. Bake at 180С for 12 minutes or until donuts spring back when lightly pressed. Cool in pan for 2 minutes. Run a thin knife around outside edge of each cavity, invert donuts onto a wire rack. Cool completely.
  4. For Matcha Glaze. Combine icing sugar, coconut milk, matcha powder, and lemon juice, stirring until smooth. Add coconut oil and mix well using a whisk. Add more coconut milk, 1/2 teaspoon at a time, if the glaze is too thick. Spread glaze over tops of donuts.
