Matcha Gâteau de Tasse (Matcha Mug Cake)
A simple take on mug cakes with a twist. The nutty flavor of the pecans pairs superbly well with the vanilla-scented, moist, and earthy matcha cake. Serve with maple syrup and powdered sugar for the perfect dessert at a Christmas dinner.
Ingredients
Cooking Instructions
step 1
Combine the 7 Tbsp and 1 tsp of Cake Flour (1/2 cup), Granulated Sugar (4 Tbsp), Baking Powder (1/4 tsp), Baking Soda (1/8 tsp), Salt (1/8 tsp), and Matcha Powder (1 tsp) in a small bowl.
step 2
In another bowl, gently whisk together the Eggland's Best Classic Egg (1), Unsalted Butter (2 Tbsp), Vanilla Extract (1/2 tsp), and Buttermilk (1/3 cup).
step 3
Add the wet ingredient mixture to the dry ingredient mixture and keep whisking to create a smooth flowing batter. Feel free to include the Roasted Pecans (2 Tbsp) at this point.
step 4
Divide butter into two microwave-safe mugs and fill them halfway. Drizzle extra toasted pecans on top.
step 5
Microwave the mugs separately for 90 seconds on high heat. Add an additional 10-second interval if the cake hasn’t set yet. Do this until it’s cooked all the way through.
step 6
Let it cool for 2 minutes.
step 7
Serve warm with ice cream, maple syrup or a simple sift of powdered sugar. Devour to your heart's content!
