guava bundt cake
This is a pretty straightforward recipe. Also, if you don’t like the guava seeds and are lucky enough to find guava shells, which are seedless, use that product instead. I kinda like the seeds, so I left one or two small guavas intact before processing them so that there’d be a small amount of seeds…

guava poppy seed donuts
After mentally going through three different baked donut recipes in my head, I finally decided to commit to this one, which is based on an apple cider donut recipe from Chef John of Food Wishes!

honey mochi muffins (guava, green tea, and tamarind)
For May, I wanted something that is lighter and suited for springtime with pastel colors and things that don’t have to be heated for long periods of time at extremely high temperatures. So these are baked at 325 degrees F. for about 30 minutes, which isn’t too much heat. It’s just enough, however, to make…
