Today there is a delicious matcha-almond cake! Just the green is a blast, I think. Are you matcha lover or hater? If you do not belong to the category lover. Give the cake a chance anyway. The Matcha taste is only light and actually only gives the cake its great color. And green tea is known to be very healthy. Double plus.
Ingredients
- Matcha: There are real differences when it comes to Matcha. Make sure that you use a high quality powder. Good ingredients get the best results.
- ground almonds: I used blanched ground almonds for this cake. They have a sweeter taste and don’t make the dough too dark.
- Olive oil: ideally extra virgin olive oil
- Eggs: Always organic (Demeter) or preferably from their own chickens or directly from the farmer.
For the cake, first we mix the dry ingredients and the liquid ingredients separately. Then we add the liquid ingredients to the dry ones and stir everything with a spoon. That is quite enough. Then put in the cake tin and bake.
