Easy Mandazi Without Yeastis a time-saving take on the classic East African beignet. Enjoy the warm spices and fluffy texture youd expect from regular mandazi. However, it comes together much quicker and easier with self-rising flour or baking powder.
What excites me about this easy mandazi recipe is freshly grated coconut, cardamom, and nutmeg. I was never a fan of cardamom until I tried this recipe. Now, its a pantry staple, and, in the right recipe, its delicious.
Mandazi might not be figure-friendly, but boy is it a delightful indulgence. Thats why I have three (now four) recipes:OG mandazi,soft mini mandazi, andbaked mandazi.
This easy mandazi is the super quick yeast-free version with self-rising flour or baking powder and is ready in no time. Can I get a thumbs-up? Thank you. 😜
What Is Mandazi?Mandazi is a popular East African street food somewhere between a doughnut and a beignet. The warmly spiced and traditionally yeasted dough with coconut milk and fresh coconut delivers a beautifully soft texture. Theyre highly addictive, so be warned!
