Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 tbsp white vinegar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp matcha green tea powder
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp melted butter, plus more for the griddle
Instructions
- Preheat griddle to 350F.
- In a small bowl or large liquid measuring cup combine milk and vinegar. Stir and let stand.
- Whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, sugar and matcha in a large bowl.
- Add the egg, vanilla and melted butter to the milk and whisk until combined.
- Add the milk mixture to the dry ingredients and whisk just until combined. Don’t over mix, you want some lumps!
- Add a small amount of butter to the griddle and smear over the entire surface. Add 1/3 cup batter for each pancake. Cook until little bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake and the edges start to firm up. This should only take about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side for an additional 2 -3 minutes. Once the center puffs up, they are mostly done and probably only need another 30 seconds or so.
- Place pancakes on a wire cooling rack and repeat the process with any remaining batter.
- You can place the cooling rack on a baking sheet and keep the pancakes in a 200F oven to keep them warm until you’re ready to serve.
- Serve with butter, maple syrup and strawberries if desired.
Notes
To make these in a pan on the stove – heat a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add butter and cook according to directions above.
