Macha Muffins 抹茶マフィン

Muffins or cup cakes has been a favourite of Axel and Naoko for quite some time. Axel learnt the basic muffins recipe from his older brother and has since made numerous variants. One early variant is a basic muffin flavoured with macha - Japanese green tea. In addition to the subtle but great taste the macha gives that wonderful, strong green colour.

Mach muffins (12)

• 2 dl sugar
• 2 eggs
• 3 1/2 dl flour
• 1 tsp vanilla sugar
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 3 tsp macha
• 1 dl milk
• 50 g melted butter

 Beat the eggs and sugar until fluffy. Add all dry ingredients and mix gently. Lastly add milk and butter and again mix gently. Use some of the butter to grease the form if you are using a muffin form. Bake the muffins in the oven for 10 minutes at 200°C.
