My Lemon Cinnamon Mandazi turned out Light and fluffy, tasty to the core and not overly sweet. Tasty autumnal spices give this mandazi with coffee and cinnamon its warming taste.

Originating from the Swahili cuisine, the snack comes in an array of flavors depending on the ingredients used. Mandazi is a slightly sweet East African Street Food; spicy, airy yeast doughnut made with coconut milk, flavored with cardamom and grated fresh coconut/ coconut flakes It can be made with yeast or baking powder. The mild sweetness of the Mandazi punctuated with cardamom, nutmeg and cinnamon goes splendidly with the delicate purple and jasmine green tea, resulting in another pairing I highly recommend you try for yourself! On the other cups of flour add the ground cinnamon and the yeast mixture. Mandazi: Here's a treat from Kenya!
