Matcha Cupcakes – batter preparation:
- In one bowl, combine the dry ingredients – flour, sugar, baking powder, and add a pinch of salt. In another bowl, combine the wet ingredients – milk, oil, egg, and vanilla extract.
- Add the wet mixture to the dry one and mix thoroughly with a mixer or whisk to ensure no lumps remain. Finally, add water.
- Pour the batter into cupcake molds, filling them roughly halfway to prevent overflow.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 150 degrees Celsius. Depending on the size of the molds, bake the cupcakes for 8 to 15 minutes. Larger molds may require more baking time.
- While the cupcakes are in the oven it’s time to prepare the cream. Place softened butter and powdered sugar in a bowl and use a mixer to beat them until fluffy.
- Add mascarpone, vanilla extract, and matcha, then beat until you achieve a smooth, flawless consistency.
- After removing the cupcakes from the oven, let them cool before starting the decorating process. The cream is best applied on top of the cupcakes using a pastry bag. You can use a professional bag or a homemade one made simply of baking paper.
- Finish the cupcakes by sprinkling matcha on top or decorating them with freeze-dried fruits.
- Enjoy! Itadakimasu!.
