This matcha donuts recipe is surprisingly easy to follow. First oeheat oven to 350°F. 

Gather all the ingredients and put them on your counter. Grease a donut pan with coconut oil. 

Combine all the dry ingredients until well incorporated, using a wooden spoon or whisk. Next, whisk together the wet ingredients in a separate bowl until well mixed. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, blending carefully.

Add the matcha donut mixture to a piping bag and put into donut pans. 

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. 

While donuts are baking, add all the frosting ingredients to a small saucepan and melt together over low heat until fully incorporated. Give it a whisk at the end so it's well blended. 

Remove the donuts from oven and cool pan for 5 minutes before flipping on top of a cooling rack. 

Drizzle glaze over the donuts and let them cool another 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
