Use Cake Flour for Matcha Marble Pound Cake. Many recipes ask for all-purpose flour when making pound cake, but in Japan, cake flour is always used to make a pound cake. It makes the pound cake extra tender. To achieve the perfect texture for the pound cake, I used Super-Fine Unbleached Cake Flour from Bob's Red MillĀ®.
Matcha pound cake šµ is one of the most popular of current trending foods in the world. It’s simple, it is quick, it tastes delicious. It’s enjoyed by millions every day. They’re nice and they look wonderful. Matcha pound cake šµ is something that I have loved my entire life.
To get started with this recipe, we have to prepare a few components. You can cook matcha pound cake šµ using 5 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Matcha pound cake šµ:
- Prepare 50 g butter
- Make ready 50 g caster suger
- Make ready 50 g self raising flour
- Get 1 egg
- Get 1/2 tea spoon matcha
It's buttery tender with a unique and delicate Green Tea flavour, yet. Add cake flour, baking powder and matcha with a spatula, and mix until the batter is evenly incorporated. Add the yogurt and matcha essence, and mix. Line a poundcake mold with parchment paper, and pour in the batter.
Steps to make Matcha pound cake šµ:
- Preheat the oven on 170Ā°C. Prepare 50g room temperature butter is a bowl. Add 50g of caster sugar, and beat them until smooth. I used a wooden spoon since I don't have electronic mixer inn my kitchen. It's not so different and didn't take too much extra time and effort as long as the butter was at room temperature. You will want to achieve a matte finish.
- Break an egg in a separate bowl, and measure only 50g to add to the mixture bowl. Mix the mixture with a silicon stapula.
- Measure another 50 gram of self raising flour. Add to the mixture bowl batch by batch. You don't want to throw all the flour at once because that could make it hard to mix evenly. I added the flour in roughly 6 batches.
- This is an optional step. I added 1/2 tea spoon of matcha powder. You can use chocolate power instead if you don't have matcha powder. That will turn the pound cake to chocolate flavour obviously. When it's mixed well, you are ready to pour them in the tin.
- Prepare a baking tin brushed gently with butter and tear a layer of baking paper to the tin. Pour the mixture in the tin and make it even. Put the tin with mixture in oven at 170Ā°C for about 30 minutes.
- Again this is optional but we sprinkled a bit more matcha powder on top of the cake before serve :)
Add the yogurt and matcha essence, and mix. Line a poundcake mold with parchment paper, and pour in the batter. Matcha pound cake, just out from the oven. A classic pound cake doesn't rely on baking powder or baking soda, and thus, it is crucial to be correct and exact when you mix the ingredients. Matcha green tea pound cake is a variation of basic pound cake flavored with matcha green tea powder.
