Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Matcha green tea powder
- 120 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 180 milliliters Milk
- 80 milliliters Vegetable oil
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, matcha green tea powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters of the way full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
