We've gone into the rainy season here. Apparently it is 20 days early. Guess the weather will be wet for a couple of weeks. They predict the rainy season will end sometime in the middle of July.
Since I was still hankering for matcha, I decided to try a matcha muffin recipe. I used the basic recipe which I used to make these.
Instead of the 150 grams of flour, I used 140 grams of flour and 10 grams of matcha powder.
Adding a handful of nibs gave the muffin a nice texture, but added more bitterness to it.
This muffin was perfect with morning coffee.
Your matcha muffins sound great. We just bought a new package of matcha this past weekend at Shirokiya. Still figuring out what to make first....
ReplyDeleteguess we are much luckier here in provence. the rain had finally stopped and we are FINALLY enjoying blue sky and sunny weather :-)

Hi Kat :)
ReplyDeleteThose muffins looked so good that I decided to try the recipe you posted back in Dec.07.
I made two batches: one with matcha and the other one with just the earl grey.
Well, both batches were fantastic! I took pictures and I'll be putting them up on my blog soon and put a link to the recipe on your blog.
Also, since most of my readers are from Italy, is it okay if I translate the recipe into Italian?
Kat, thank you for a wonderful recipe! And thank you for your beautiful blog which is always a great pleasure to read! :)

Take care.
