In a medium glass bowl, whisk together melted butter, sugar, salt, vanilla, egg and matcha.
Add in the almond flour, all-purpose flour, and baking powder. Fold until combined.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan.
Bake at 350°F/177°C for approximately 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, or with the slightest bit of crumbs clinging to it.
Remove from oven, let cool in pan for 5 minutes, and transfer to a cooling rack. Cut into 8 squares and dust with additional matcha prior to serving.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature.

Can you substitute the cane sugar for another sugar? What sugar substitution would you use?
Hi, followed your recipe but the brownies didn’t seem to rise as much as the ones in your photos. Used a 8x4 loaf pan states in the recipe too. Anything that I may have missed out?
Thank you for sharing your creation with me on Instagram and for the comment, Juliana! 🙂

Made this today and it's delicious! I used only 2 tablespoons of sugar because I don't like sweet desserts and this turned out so well! Will definitely make again.
Hi, all my recipes are based on a normal oven, not fan-forced.

This recipe is delish! But if you're using the US measurements, you're going to want to triple it. I attempted it with the recommended measurements and don't own a pan small enough to bake that in. Maybe an easy bake oven?
Thanks for your feedback, Briana. The recipe was intended to be small-batch, but you can definitely double or triple the recipe to fit a larger 8" x 8" square pan.

Would the recipe work if I only use all-purpose flour and no almond flour?

You could definitely use another sweetener -- eg. coconut sugar, honey (if you're not vegan)?

They have the most prettiest green colour to them! I also love that amazing fluffy texture to these almond brownies! Gotta add to the list!

Your baking powder may have lost its potency. You can increase the baking powder a bit next time for more lift.

This didn't come out at all as in your picture. I followed your steps using the metric measurements and were much denser and not as tall and fluffy.
Michelle
Sorry they didn't turn out for you -- perhaps your baking powder isn't active?

Love this recipe! So easy to follow. Definitely going to double it next time as this batch is already gone! 😅

Hello, I love that you have so many matcha and sesame recipes! Just wondering if you’re using fan-forced oven or normal oven in the recipes? TIA x

Hi there, I haven't tested this particular recipe swapping out the almond flour so I can't say for sure.
