Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons matcha powder
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons white chocolate (optional, for sweetness)
  • 1 teaspoon matcha powder
  • 1 tablespoon honey or sugar
  • 45 mochi balls
  • 1 scoop matcha ice cream

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk flour, matcha, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

  3. Combine wet and dry ingredients gently until just mixed.
  4. Heat a lightly greased pan over medium-low heat. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake. Cook 2–3 minutes per side until fluffy and cooked through.

Notes

  • Serve immediately while pancakes are warm.

  • Sift matcha to avoid lumps.
  • Cook on low heat to keep pancakes bright green.
