Matcha Tea Cakes

We’ve got matcha madness! Jonesin’ for a treat that’s so fresh and so green (green)? Look no further than these super-easy, super-classy green tea cakes.

Thanks to just two scoops of matcha, you get all the color and flavor of a freshly brewed cup of green tea with each bite! These pretty little cakes are the perfect base for spring flowers, fresh fruit or some lucky Peeps.

With such a simple recipe, it’s easy to get creative… hop to it!

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs

  • 1/2 cup melted butter

  • 1/2 cup milk

  • 1 box Miss Jones Organic Vanilla Cake Mix

  • 2 tablespoons finely ground matcha (green tea) powder

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Using organic cooking spray, lightly spray (or butter and flour) bundt pan and set aside. We made full-size and mini cakes with the same recipe.

  2. In a mixing bowl, combine butter, eggs and milk and whisk or beat on low until combined. Then stir in matcha and cake mix until dry ingredients are fully incorporated.

  3. Fill mini bundt pan segments 2/3 full, making sure to evenly spread batter across each mold to ensure even baking.

  4. Bake for 14-16 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cakes are springy in the center. For full sized cakes, bake according to directions on box.

  5. Cool for 5-10 minutes, then remove cakes carefully from pan (using a butter knife helps).

  6. Dust finished cakes with powdered sugar or a drizzle of Miss Jones Organic Vanilla Buttercream Frosting.
