Ingredients
Matcha French Toast:
- 2 thick-cut sliced bread day old is best
- 1 large egg beaten
- 1 tablespoon melted butter or neutral vegetable oil
- ¼ C whole milk or non-dairy alternative
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar or any sweetener that you like
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ tablespoon matcha sifted
- 1 teaspoon butter or oil for greasing the pan
To serve:
- powdered sugar optional
- maple syrup
- fresh berries
Instructions
- In a shallow bowl, lightly whisk together the egg, melted butter (or oil), and milk. Add in sugar, vanilla extract and matcha. Whisk until everything is combined.
- If the mixture has a few lumps from the matcha powder, pour the mixture through a sieve.
- Heat a frying pan over medium-low heat. Lightly grease with 1 teaspoon butter (or oil).
- Dip one slice of bread into the egg mixture and flip. Press firmly on the bread to ensure it soaks up the mixture.
- Place the egg-soaked bread into the frying pan and cook over low heat for 4-5 minutes (depending on how thick your bread is). Cover with a lid. Remove the lid and flip the bread. Cover and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- Repeat with the remaining slice of bread.
- Serve with powdered sugar/matcha dusted on top, and/or maple syrup and berries.
