MATCHA LEMON MUFFINS
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 17 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 and 3/4 cups flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
-
2 tbsp Organic Commercial Matcha
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup sugar
- ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk, or regular milk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup oil
- 1 egg
- Juice of 1 lemon (mine yielded about 1/4 cup of juice)
- ½ tsp lemon zest
Lemon Drizzle (Optional)
- ½ cup confectioner’s sugar
- 1-2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Instructions
-
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
-
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, matcha, salt, and sugar. Set aside.
-
In a medium bowl, mix together milk, vanilla, egg, oil, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
-
Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until combined but be careful not to over-stir. Over-stirring will result in tough, dense muffins.
-
Add muffins liners to muffin tins or spray tins with non-stick cooking spray.
-
Distribute the batter evenly into the muffin tins and bake for approximately 15-17 minutes or until fork comes out clean.
-
Transfer to wire rack.
-
Optional: For lemon drizzle, mix confectioner’s sugar and lemon juice until desired consistency. Drizzle lightly over muffins and let muffins sit until drizzle slightly hardens.
-
Enjoy!
