(Credit: http://www.patesmith.co/matcha-pancakes/)
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2-3 tablespoons sugar - Matcha powder can be a bit bitter, so this green tea pancake recipe uses a bit more sugar
3-4 tablespoons matcha powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 ½ cups 2% or whole milk, plus more as preferred
2 tablespoons melted butter, cooled, plus more for cooking
Instructions
1. Prep batter. In a large mixing bowl, mix together dry ingredients.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs and add milk and cooled butter.
3. Stir egg mixture into dry ingredients and stir just until mixture is wet (some lumps are okay). Add
extra milk if mixture is too thick.
4. Cook pancakes. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add oil or a knob of butter. Once
simmering, add 1/3 cup of batter to skillet. After bottom brows and bubbles begin to appear
(~1-2 minutes), flip pancake and cook an additional 1-2 minutes.
5. Serve with syrup, whipped cream or fruit.

1 teaspoon vanilla
3 tablespoons matcha powder (*if your matcha isn't sweetened add 3 TBSP of sugar to the

muddy colored.)
