Tomorrow is National Doughnut day and I have been sharing ALL my favorite doughnuts I have made over the years over on my socials where you should definitely follow me! Quarantine had me snacking and eating more than I should, so I decided to go a healthier route for this recipe. Have you all had a matcha latte at your local coffee shop? Do you know anything about it? 

All I knew a few years ago when these matcha inspired drinks started to enter the “cool kids” coffee outlets, was that they had a lot of health benefits. While I first wanted to try Matcha simply because it was the latest food trend, to find out that it had tons of antioxidants that help protect against heart disease, lower blood pressure, slow growth of cancer cells, boost metabolism and have anti-aging properties, well, that was just a wonderful bonus. Give me ALL the matcha!

Side note: I am obviously no doctor and all info I have found was by a simple google search so drink at your own risk. 

If you are still slightly nervous about this funny word, just know it is simply a powdered form of green tea and people have been drinking that for years! Because it comes in a powdered form, you can use it so many ways other than a tea or a latte. You can add it to smoothies or even in your baking…which is what I did today. I’ll never give up doughnut, so I might as well have a recipe under my belt that at least has some healthy elements as well, right???
