Easy Matcha Pancakes recipe. This quick breakfast idea is a healthy way to start your day and will keep you full until lunch.
This week, we had a long weekend at my school. One of the best things about having a long weekend is that I can sleep in more and have lazy morning breakfasts.
Well, in theory that’s how long weekends should go. In reality, our 13 month old baby wakes us up far too early and takes up all of our energy. But I somehow managed to make these Matcha Pancakes this morning.
What you need to make Matcha Pancakes
You don’t need much at all! This uses only ingredients that I always have on hand. All you need is:
- flour
- sugar
- matcha
- baking powder
- salt
- milk
- eggs
That’s it!
Make Ahead
These pancakes, like most pancakes I make, can be made ahead of time and frozen. I actually don’t know which way I prefer eating these pancakes: whether it’s when they are freshly made, or after freezing.
The way to freeze these pancakes is to cook them as per the instructions below. Once they are done on the pan, place them on a wire rack to cool completely. Then transfer them to a freezer bag. When you are ready to make the pancakes, simply take them out of the freezer bag and toast them. It creates a crisp exterior and a light and fluffy interior, which I LOVE.

This pancake recipe takes match powder to the next level! The earthy matcha flavor in the pancakes went well with some pure maple syrup.

What a unique flavour variation on a classic breakfast recipe. I had some baking matcha handy so I gave these a try on the weekend. They were delicious and went perfectly with the blueberries and a few strawberries too.

Yea, a new use for matcha! I always have it on hand and use it in smoothies, but I never thought of adding it to pancakes. It’s nice to mention that you can freeze them too. I’m always on the lookout for new breakfast ideas and this is a great one.
