Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tbsp matcha powder 1 1/2 tablespoons works for a less-strong lfavor
  • 6 Tbsp granulated sugar Feel free to adjust up or down, depending on your tastes
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 Tbsp melted butter or neutral oil
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, matcha powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until everything is well combined and you don’t see any streaks of matcha.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. It’s okay if there are a few lumps—overmixing can make your pancakes tough, and we want them fluffy!
  • Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden underneath.
