Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Matcha green tea powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 1 unit Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup White chocolate chips (ensure gluten-free)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, matcha powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with the granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy using an electric mixer, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing at low speed until just combined.
Fold in the white chocolate chips gently with a spatula.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden, but the centers are still soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your gluten-free matcha cookies with a cup of tea or coffee!
