Some of you knows that I love matcha. I love it as tea, as flavor on smoothie, on cookies and cakes etc. I wanted to make marble cake with a twist so I decided to add a hint of matcha and lemon on it.
Matcha and lemon marble cake:
Ingredients
200g butter
2dl sugar
3dl flours
½ dl potato flour
2 tsp baking flour
2tsp vanilla sugar
2 tbsp matcha
3 tbsp lemon juice
1. Preheat oven to 170C
2. Butter the loaf ban using a slice of butter.
3. Mix the butter and sugar. Add the eggs one by one. Mix well.
4. Mix the flours. Fold the dry ingredients in 2-3 folds. Mix well.
5. Add the vanilla sugar and mix well.
6. Divide the batter into 2 bowls. Put lemon juice and zest into one bowl and matcha powder into the other. Gently mix together with a rubber spatula.
7. Pour the 2 batter mixtures a little at a time into the buttered loaf pan and run a spoon or spatula through it until you get a marbled effect. Careful not to over mix as the cake will just come out brown rather than marbled.
8.Bake the cake for roughly 45 minutes, sticking a skewer or knife into the centre and if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
9. Let the cake cool before serving.
