- 2/3 cup granulated sugar 160 grams
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch 15 grams
- 1 tablespoon matcha green tea powder, 6 grams
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- Pinch salt
- Pinch nutmeg freshly grated
- 3/4 cup buttermilk 177 milliliters
- 2 egg large
- 2 tablespoons butter melted and slightly cooled, unsalted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Matcha Glaze:
- 2 cups powdered sugar 250 grams
- 2 teaspoons matcha green tea powder green tea powder
- 2-4 tablespoons milk 30-60 milliliters
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- white chocolate for decorating, optional, pink bows or sprinkles
Instructions
Matcha Donuts:
- Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Grease 2-3 baked doughnut pans.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cornstarch, matcha, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, butter, and vanilla extract. Mix into the flour mixture just until incorporated with no lumps.
- Transfer the batter to a piping bag or a large ziploc bag with the corner snipped off. Pipe the batter into prepared doughnut pans. Each cavity should be about 2/3 full.
- Bake in preheated oven until golden and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, 10-12 minutes.
- Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire rack to cool completely to room temperature.
Matcha Glaze:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and matcha.
- Slowly whisk in the milk and vanilla extract until smooth. If too thin, add more powdered sugar. If too thick, add more milk.
- Immediately dip the top of a cooled doughnut into the glaze. Repeat with remaining doughnuts and glaze.
- If desired, top with white chocolate decorations or sprinkles.
- Allow to set briefly before serving.
