Matcha Green Tea Waffles

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup self raising whole meal
• 2 tsp Kenko Matcha Green Tea
• 1 egg, separated
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 tbsp margarine, melted, cooled
• 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
• 3/4 milk of choice (works best with skim milk)

Method

1. Sift the flour into a large bowl, discarding any leftover bran. Sift Kenko Matcha Green Tea into the flour. Set aside.
2. In medium bowl, beat the egg and sugar for 3 minutes.
3. Add margarine and honey to the egg mixture, and continue to mix for 1 minute.
4. Add alternately the milk and dry mixture to the wet mixture, until just combined. Do not over mix. Allow to stand for at 30 minute to 3 hours.
5. Heat waffle iron to appliance instructions and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Spoon the waffle mix (1/4 to 1/2 cup) onto the iron and cook until crispy and slightly golden, 3 to 5 minutes.
6. Serve hot with fresh fruit and a dusting of Kenko Matcha Green Tea.

The recipe serves 4 waffles, so 2 waffles per person.

That’s it! Pretty easy and yummy right? If you like this post, please don’t forget to
