Delicious Japanese Matcha Crepes: A Simple Recipe for Breakfast Bliss
Here is how I make delicious Japanese matcha crepes. Follow these steps to enjoy this tasty treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cake flour (or a mix of 3/4 cup all-purpose flour and 1/4 cup cornstarch)
- 1 tablespoon matcha powder
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk (or almond milk for a dairy-free option)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (plus more for cooking)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cake flour, matcha powder, and salt. Whisk them together until well mixed.
- Prepare the Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs. Then add the milk and melted butter. Whisk until smooth.
- Combine the Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until the batter is thin and smooth.
- Let the Batter Rest: Cover the batter and let it sit for about 30 minutes. This helps the crepes become tender.
- Heat the Skillet: Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a little butter to coat the pan.
- Cook the Crepes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread it evenly. Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges look dry.
- Flip the Crepe: Use a spatula to gently lift the crepe and flip it over. Cook for another 1 minute until lightly golden.
- Stack the Crepes: Remove the crepe from the skillet and place it on a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
