Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons high-quality matcha powder* (We recommend opting for culinary-grade matcha sourced directly from Japan, as the quality surpasses that of matcha from China)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup melted butter
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and prepare a muffin pan by greasing it lightly or lining it with paper liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, matcha powder*, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In another bowl, cream together the sugar and melted butter until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then, add the vanilla extract and mix again.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as it can result in dense muffins.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the muffin cups, filling them about two-thirds full.
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake the muffins for approximately 18 to 20 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes in the pan. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy the matcha chocolate chip muffins warm or at room temperature. Savor these delicious treats with a cup of matcha tea or your favorite beverage.
