Basic Ingredients- 180g cake flour (low-gluten flour)
- 18g matcha powder (use a generous amount for a vibrant green color!)
- 6g baking powder
- 100g unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 85g granulated sugar
- 1 large egg, at room temperature
- 100g milk, at room temperature
- 55g chocolate chips (adjust to your preference)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
In a bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter until smooth using a whisk. Then, gradually add the granulated sugar in 2-3 additions, continuing to whisk until the butter and sugar mixture becomes light and fluffy, resembling a creamy texture. The sugar will dissolve as you mix, making the butter softer.
Step 2
Lightly beat the room-temperature egg and gradually incorporate it into the butter-sugar cream, mixing well after each addition. It’s important to mix thoroughly to prevent the egg from separating. Next, sift the cake flour, matcha powder, and baking powder together into the bowl. Using a spatula, gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients by cutting through the batter as if drawing the number ’11’. Be careful not to overmix; stop as soon as you no longer see streaks of flour, as overmixing can lead to tough muffins.
Step 3
Add the room-temperature milk to the batter and mix gently until just combined. The batter should not be too stiff. Finally, fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter. You now have a thick, rich green batter for your Hulk muffins!
Step 4
Spoon the batter into prepared muffin cups lined with paper liners, filling each cup about 80% full. Overfilling can cause the muffins to overflow during baking. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for approximately 25 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin; it should come out clean. Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack before enjoying your delicious Hulk Muffins!
