INGREDIENTS 

For 4 pancakes (I doubled the recipe in the images)

  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • A large pinch of salt
  • 100 g all-purpose flour (3.5 oz)
  • 2 teaspoons matcha tea
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder (5 g / 0.18 oz)
  • 1 pot unsweetened plain or Greek yogurt (110 g / 3.9 oz per pot.) If the batter is too thick due to flour absorption, add a little more yogurt.

PREPARATION

  • It's important to mix the wet and dry ingredients separately to avoid overworking the batter and to quickly achieve a homogeneous texture without liquefying it.
  • In a mixing bowl, sift the flour, matcha, and baking powder, then mix with a whisk.
  • In another bowl, beat the egg, sugar, and plain unsweetened yogurt until you get a smooth mixture.
  • Incorporate the flour mixture and the pinch of salt, and whisk until you get a smooth batter, quite thick but that spreads slowly. If it's too thick, add a little more yogurt.
  • Heat a non-stick frying pan or crepe maker over medium heat, then butter it with a small knob of butter using a silicone brush or paper towel.
  • Pour a small ladle of batter into the hot pan, spreading it slightly with the back of the ladle to obtain a nice round shape. Let it cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the batter is slightly dry so you can flip it.
  • Flip the pancake and cook until golden brown.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining batter. Place the cooked pancakes on a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Serve drizzled with maple syrup, honey, or plain, according to your taste. Serve with toppings of your choice.
