Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F/177°C.
- Pour milk into a microwave-safe jar or glass and heat until steaming hot (but not boiling).
- Place Earl Grey tea bags (you can use tea bags or loose leaf) into the milk and let it steep for a few minutes.
- Remove the tea bags/tea leaves (save the tea to add into the batter if you like).
- Note: as the tea may have absorbed some of the milk, you may need to add a little more milk to make 100ml total.
- In a large bowl, whisk together egg, Earl Grey milk mixture, oil, sugar, salt, vanilla extract and baking powder. (If adding ground Earl Grey tea, add it to the mixture).
- Add in the cake flour and whisk gently to combine until no lumps remain.
- Pour the batter into each doughnut cavity, about ¾ way full.
- Give the pan a few taps to release any trapped air bubbles.
- Bake at 350°F/177°C for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Decorate:
- Add chocolate to a microwave-safe shallow bowl.
- Heat in 20-second intervals and stir until completely melted.
- Stir in bergamot oil (if using).
- Dip the surface of the doughnut into the melted chocolate and decorate with rose petals.
- Repeat with the remainder.
