Description

Imagine biting into a tender, chocolatey donut, its rich flavor perfectly balanced by a vibrant, slightly bitter matcha glaze. These baked donuts offer a satisfyingly soft texture, a delightful alternative to their fried counterparts. The deep cocoa notes of the donut complement the earthy, green tea essence of the glaze, creating a harmonious and sophisticated treat.

The bright green hue of the matcha glaze also adds a visually appealing element, making them a festive addition to any gathering. To create these delightful donuts, a smooth batter is prepared, ensuring each donut emerges from the oven with a moist and tender crumb. Once baked, the donuts are allowed to cool, patiently awaiting their transformation with the luscious matcha glaze.

This glaze, made with the gentle addition of heavy cream, provides a velvety coating that clings beautifully to the donut's surface. For the best experience, these donuts are best enjoyed shortly after glazing, when the matcha flavor is at its peak and the glaze is still soft and yielding. However, if you wish to prepare them in advance, the glazed donuts can be stored in an airtight container for a short period, or refrigerated to maintain their freshness.

Just remember that the glaze is best when freshly prepared, so consider making it just before you plan to decorate your donuts. Whether you're looking for a special treat to share with friends and family or simply seeking a moment of indulgence for yourself, these chocolate donuts with matcha glaze are sure to satisfy. The combination of flavors and textures creates a memorable experience, making them a delightful choice any time of day.

Instructions

    1.
    Combine the almond flour, Swerve, baking powder, cocoa powder, and kosher salt together in a medium-sized bowl using a whisk.
    2.
    Add the olive oil, almond milk, vanilla extract, and eggs to the dry ingredients. Mix well with a rubber spatula until fully combined.
    3.
    Prepare a donut pan using nonstick cooking spray. Scoop five teaspoons of batter into each of the donut cavities using a teaspoon-sized cookie scoop. Spread the batter evenly in each cavity.
    4.
    Bake the pan with the batter for 12-15 minutes until the donuts are puffed and cracked. Allow the donuts to cool for several minutes before removing. Use a butter knife to gently loosen the edges of each donut. Carefully remove them from the pan and place them on a cooling rack.
    5.
    Once the donuts are cooled, prepare the matcha glaze by combining ">1/3 powdered erythritol, matcha powder, and heavy cream in a small bowl.
    6.
    Prepare the glaze just before dipping, as it tends to thicken. Dip the top side of each donut into the glaze. Lift them out and place them back onto the cooling rack.
    7.
    Sprinkle chopped dark chocolate on one half of each glazed donut. Store the donuts in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
