Fluffy Matcha Dorayaki

After exploring chocolate last time, this time we made fluffy matcha dorayaki! We added plenty of matcha powder so the flavor really comes through in the batter 🍃🍵

Ingredients

Eggs：700g
Cake flour Violet (NISSHIN SEIFUN)：630g
Matcha Powder Green Powder DK (NARIZUKA CORPORATION)：70g
Granulated sugar：560g
Honey：70g
Baking powder：14g
Cake Doll emulsified oil (MIYOSHI OIL & FAT CO., LTD.)：70g
Water：330g
Water (for adjusting batter)：50g

How to make the batter

In a separate bowl, sift together the cake flour, matcha powder, and baking powder.

Mix until the dry ingredients are evenly combined.

Add the whole eggs to the mixer bowl and beat until loosened, then add the granulated sugar and mix well. Next, add the honey and Cake Doll, and continue mixing.

In another bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.

Mix thoroughly to dissolve any remaining granulated sugar.

Adding the honey and Cake Doll, and mix well.
The emulsified oil gives the batter a soft, fluffy texture.

Add the dry ingredients to the eggs and mix until smooth.
Pour in the water and mix on low speed for about 1 minute. Let the batter rest for 1 hour.

Start mixing gently so that the dry ingredients do not become airborne.

Once the dry ingredients are well combined, add the water and mix on low speed for about 1 minute.

After letting the batter rest for about an hour, check its consistency and adjust the stiffness as needed. Once it’s adjusted, the batter is ready.

This batch of batter was a little stiff, so we added some water to reach the right consistency.
The final batter viscosity should be around 35 dPa/s. This batch was 34 dPa/s.

How to cook the batter

Set the Tabletop Pancake Cooker to 195℃.
Apply oil (Bitakatto SL) on the copper cooking surface.
Dispense the batter, cover, and cook for about 50 seconds.
Flip and cook for another 30 seconds (a total cooking time of 1 minutes 30 seconds).

Be careful not to use too much oil, or it may leave stains.

Pipe the batter, cover, and cook for about 50 seconds.

This time, we made fluffy matcha dorayaki with just the right amount of sweetness. Getting the batter consistency was a bit trickier than with the chocolate version, but the result was absolutely delicious! It was also wonderful with red bean paste and fresh cream.
