Ingredients
- 1 tbsp grounded flex seeds (or chia seeds)
- 3 tbsp water
- 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (use gluten-free flour if needed)
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking soda (or 1 tsp baking powder)
- 1/5 tsp salt
- 1 cup plant-based milk (I used soy milk)
- 4 tsp matcha powder
- 1/4 cup walnuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175 C / 350 F
- In a small bowl/jar, add the flax seeds and the water. Mix slightly and set aside for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a big bowl, add the flour, sugar, baking soda/powder and salt. Stir until well combined.
- Next, take a medium-size bowl and pour the plant-based milk and the matcha. Whisk well for a few minutes to get rid of big lumps (small lumps are fine).
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix well, but do not overmix the batter.
- (Optional) Add the walnuts and mix slightly once again.
- Pour the batter into muffin form, but don't overfill, because the dough will rise when baking.
- Place into the oven for around 20 minutes on 175 C / 350 F.
- After 20 minutes, take the muffins out of the oven and let them cool before serving.
