Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 35 minutes

Total Time: 50 minutes

Servings: 12 brownies

Skill Level: Easy

Ingredients:

• 1 cup gluten-free flour blend
• 3 tbsp culinary-grade matcha powder
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, matcha powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, mix the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Gently fold in the white chocolate chips.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top evenly with a spatula.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.

Helpful Tips and Variations:

• For a nutty twist, add 1/4 cup of chopped almonds or walnuts to the batter.
• If you’re new to matcha, start with 2 tablespoons of matcha powder for a milder flavor.
• Store brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
• If white chocolate chips are not available, you can substitute with dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips for a different flavor profile.

Storage Instructions:

These brownies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, keep them in the refrigerator for up to a week, or freeze for up to 3 months. Just ensure they are well-wrapped to prevent freezer burn.

Pairings:

These Matcha Green Tea Gluten-Free Brownies pair beautifully with a cup of freshly brewed green tea or a matcha latte. For a more indulgent option, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. They also make a lovely addition to a dessert platter alongside fresh berries or fruit compote.
