Matcha Almond Flour Brownies
Description
These Matcha Almond Flour Brownies begin by whisking melted unsalted butter with granulated cane sugar, sea salt, vanilla extract, beaten egg, and sifted matcha green tea powder to create a smooth batter. Almond flour, all-purpose flour, and baking powder are then folded in to provide body and texture. The batter is spread into a parchment-lined loaf pan and baked at 350°F (177°C) for about 35 minutes, tested by a toothpick coming out clean or with minimal crumbs. After cooling slightly in the pan, the loaf is transferred to a rack to cool completely before slicing into eight squares and dusting with additional sifted matcha.
The result is a moist, tender brownie with a mild bitterness from matcha balanced by sweetness and a soft crumb due to almond flour. These brownies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to five days, making them suitable for prepare-ahead dessert or snacks.
