I'm sure that nobody would like to stay in the kitchen for long because of the hot spell that we're going through now. So making this mini matcha donuts were fun and easy. It only took a couple of minutes to do the mixing with a hand whisk. The baking time was short too, only about 10 minutes and all will be gone within seconds!

Baked Mini Matcha Donuts

Ingredients: makes 12
95g plain flour
25g caster sugar
1/2 tsp baking powder
1tbsp matcha powder/green tea powder (I added 2 tsp)
1 egg, lightly beaten (60g)
80ml fresh milk
40ml corn oil or melted butter
1 tbsp honey (I added 1.5 tbsp)

Chocolate glaze
60g semi sweet chocolate
Desired toppings

Method:

Preheat oven to 180 deg C. Grease mini donut pan with cooking spray or melted butter. Set aside.
In a large measuring cup or a bowl, sift in flour, baking powder and matcha powder. Add sugar and whisk with a hand whisk till mixture combined.
Add in beaten egg, milk, oil and honey then gently whisk till batter smooth. Do not over mix.
Slowly pour batter into prepared muffin pan. Baked in preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes or until donuts spring back when touched. Cool donuts in pan for 2 minutes before removing it from tray and set aside on cooling rack.
Melt chocolate in microwave or on double boiler over stove. Dip the donuts with melted chocolate and decorate topping as desired. I used chocolate balls, toasted white sesame seeds and chopped pistacho nuts.
