Equipment
- 8x8-inch baking pan
- parchment paper
- mixing bowls
- whisk or hand mixer
- rubber spatula
- sifter or fine mesh sieve
Ingredients
- 115 g unsalted butter
- 170 g white chocolate, chopped
- 2 large eggs
- 150 g granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp culinary-grade matcha powder
- 95 g all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- Melt the butter and white chocolate together in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir until smooth, then set aside to cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until light and frothy, about 2–3 minutes.
- Whisk the melted chocolate mixture into the eggs until combined.
- Sift in the flour, matcha powder, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 28–32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs. Do not overbake.
- Let cool completely in the pan. For cleaner slices, refrigerate for 1 hour before cutting.
Notes
Use high-quality culinary-grade matcha for the best color and flavor. For clean slices, chill the brownies before cutting. Add-ins like pistachios or dark chocolate chunks make great variations, and these brownies adapt well to gluten-free or dairy-free swaps.
