Baked Matcha Doughnuts - Introducing Goen Matcha
Description
The Baked Matcha Doughnuts use plain flour, caster sugar, and matcha powder combined with baking powder and salt as dry ingredients. Wet ingredients include buttermilk, egg, and melted butter, which together create a batter that produces doughnuts with a soft, light crumb. Baking at 350°F for 13–15 minutes allows the doughnuts to rise and set without over-drying.
The batter is spooned about three-quarters full into a doughnut tin to create the classic doughnut shape. Once fully baked and cooled, they exhibit a subtle green hue and a tender texture that contrasts the traditional fried doughnuts.
These doughnuts are ideal for an afternoon treat or tea time, offering a unique twist with the matcha flavor from the Goen brand matcha powder. Their baked preparation makes them accessible to home bakers seeking a less greasy alternative.
Ingredients
- 140 g (1 cup) plain flour
- 70 g (1/3 cup) caster sugar
- 1-2 tsp matcha powder Goen brand

- Preheat the oven to fan assisted 160C / 180C / 350F / gas 4 and lightly oil a 6 cup doughnut tin.
- Combine the flour, sugar, matcha, baking powder and salt in a large bowl and set aside.
- In another bowl, combine the buttermilk and egg before mixing in the melted butter.
- Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until everything is just combined.
