Gluten-free, dairy-free mochi donuts in creative flavors
"The mochi doughnuts at this Laurelhurst area shop use butter mochi as a jumping off point, selling black sesame, honeydew boba, and strawberry-yuzu funfetti rings to passersby each morning. The filled doughnuts particularly stand out, little springy wells of dough with passionfruit curd or cinnamon coconut custard. The doughnuts are gluten, dairy, and nut-free." - Sararosa Davies
"What started as a pop-up specializing in butter mochi doughnuts has turned into a tiny shop on Portland’s 28th Avenue restaurant row, with a second in Beaverton. This 100-percent gluten-free and dairy-free shop serves rings of soft, springy doughnuts with a gentle give, in an exciting range of rotating flavors. For example, any given visit may involve doughnuts filled with passionfruit curd, rings glazed with calamansi lemonade icing, or orange-hued Thai tea pastries. Mikiko is also available via delivery." - Rebecca Roland
"A mochi-donut innovator that began as a pop-up and now operates from a sun-filled brick-and-mortar, making rice-flour, gluten-free donuts baked (not fried) for a springy, chewy texture with an ASMR-like crackle. The menu mixes classic and filled varieties—fan favorites include Passionfruit Curd and Horchata Pudding—and highlights Asian flavors such as matcha, ube, Thai tea, black sesame-marionberry, and yuzu-vanilla; the unglazed base is also used for a popular ham, egg, and American cheese breakfast sandwich." - ByZoe Baillargeon
"This popular doughnut shop serves gluten-and-dairy-free baked rice flour doughnuts with a compelling tender-sticky-chewy texture. Flavors reflect Japanese American family roots and playful Portland trends, like lapsang maple bacon and yuzu funfetti. Savory options include a doughnut breakfast sandwich with katsu sauce." - Thom Hilton
"Mikiko, a mochi doughnut pop-up, is returning to the Portland scene starting March 20 with a weekend residency at Mama Bird on Saturdays and Sundays. The pop-up will feature new doughnut flavors and will run for the foreseeable future. Previously, Mikiko operated as both a pop-up and a delivery service, appearing at Bar West and New Seasons locations." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
