Matcha and White Chocolate Muffins - image 1


In our last blog post, we explained what kitchen grade matcha is and why it's worth choosing for culinary purposes over other grades of matcha. Today, we bring you our very own tried and tested recipe for matcha and white chocolate muffins!

With their surprising colour and subtle green tea aroma, these muffins are a perfect introduction to baking with matcha. Children will particularly enjoy watching the mixture turn bright green when you combine the ingredients.

If you wish to create a bolder flavour, you may add a little more matcha than indicated. Be careful not to use too much though, as this might lead to a bitter aftertaste.

We recommend you enjoy these matcha muffins freshly baked, with a cup of your favourite tea from TOKYO MATCHA SELECTION!
