Instructions

  1. Sift together flour, matcha powder, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.

    💡

    Pro tip: Sifting prevents matcha clumps and ensures even color.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter.

  3. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Don't overmix - some lumps are okay.

  4. Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium-low heat. Add a small pat of butter.

  5. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form on surface and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

  6. Flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden underneath. Keep warm while cooking remaining pancakes.

  7. Stack pancakes and top with whipped cream, fresh strawberries, and a drizzle of maple syrup.
