Discover a light, refined version of no-fry, oven-baked Sakura fritters! Inspired by the delicacy of cherry blossoms, these fritters offer floral, sweet flavors without being greasy. Perfect with a cup of matcha tea.
Ingredients
- 130 g light flour (pastry flour)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 egg
- 25 g melted butter
-
40 g sugar
-
4 tablespoons Sakura powder
- 100 g white chocolate
Instructions
Preheat oven to 180°C.
- In a bowl, whisk together egg and sugar until smooth and slightly frothy.
Melt butter in microwave or bain-marie.
- Add the melted butter to the egg and sugar mixture, then fold in well.
Sift flour and baking powder together, then add to wet mixture. Mix until smooth.
Add 2 tablespoons of Sakura powder to the dough and mix gently.
- Roll out the dough between two sheets of cling film to a thickness of about 1 cm.
Cut out dough circles using a cookie cutter or glass. You can use your fingers to make a hole to make them look like doughnuts!
- Place the pastry circles on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake in preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- Meanwhile, chop the white chocolate and melt in a bain-marie or microwave. Add the Sakura powder to the melted white chocolate and mix well.
- Once the doughnuts are cooked, let them cool completely on a wire rack.
- Dip cooled doughnuts in melted white chocolate and sprinkle lightly with Sakura powder for decoration.
- Allow chocolate to harden before serving.
Recipe notes
If you don't have Sakura powder, you can use matcha tea powder for a different but equally delicious variation!
For an even lighter texture, you can sift the flour twice before adding it to the mixture.
The doughnuts can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days.
