Matcha Pancakes

I have made Matcha Pancakes before, but I will always try out other recipes, as Matcha is one of my favorite ingredients in my pantry.  This time around, I am using NIKO NEKO Yuri Matcha Powder.

Ingredients: (makes 8)

1 cup milk

1 egg

1 1/4 cup rolled oats

2 tsp. Matcha Powder

1 tbsp. Chia Seeds

1 tbsp. honey (add more if you prefers sweet)

1/2 tsp. baking powder (sifted)

Pinch of salt

White chocolate chips (to add over the batter during frying)

Methods:

1. Prepare and measure all the ingredients.
2. Add all ingredients into the blender bowl; adding the wet ingredients first for easier blending.
3. Mix everything at high speed until you get a smooth texture.
4. Taste the pancake batter and add additional honey if you prefer much sweeter.
5. Pour the batter into a large bowl.  Let the batter rest for few minutes.  Oats will soak some of the moisture, and pancake batter will become denser.
6. In the meantime, heat the pancake pan over medium heat and coat/drizzle with some cooking oil.
7. For each pancake, drop about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan and add  some white chocolate chips over the top.  The amount of batter depends on your preferred size of the pancakes.  Cook for 1-2 minutes until pancake is lightly browned.
8. Flip the pancake and cook for another minute.  Remove the pancake and place on a wire rack over a plate.  Repeat the process with the remaining pancake batter.
9. Sprinkle some Matcha powder over the top of the pancakes, and serve.

I serve the Matcha Pancakes for my breakfast, with a glass of Matcha Green Tea Latte. To obtain the Matcha Latte recipe, click here
