Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon matcha green tea powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
  • 0.5 cups granulated sugar
  • 0.25 cups brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cups plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 cups white chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with butter.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, matcha powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and creamy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Add the Greek yogurt to the wet mixture and mix until just combined.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, folding gently with a spatula until just incorporated. Take care not to overmix.
  7. Gently fold in the white chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  8. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  9. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  10. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. Optionally, dust the cooled muffins with powdered sugar for an elegant finish before serving.
