Among the many varieties of tea, green tea has conquered the hearts of many tea lovers with its refreshing taste buds. One of the most obvious and touted benefits of green tea is its anti-aging properties. Nowadays, people not only drink tea, but also make green tea cakes from green tea.
The outer layer of green tea cake is a layer of cream with green tea flavor, and the inner layer is a soft cake embryo. After one sip,you will be awakened by the strong but not greasy, fresh and natural green tea flavor.
The method of making green tea cake is very simple, we need to use these materials:
flour 100g
dry baking powder 5g
sugar 30g
butter 45g
milk 20g
a few drops of cream essence
green tea powder 50g
1. Combine the eggs and sugar and use a whisk to make foam until you can feel it thick.
2. Melt the butter in the microwave, put the flour, baking powder, butter, milk, cream essence and green tea powder into the egg mixture and mix well.
3. Spread some butter on the container and pour the mixed batter into the container.
4. Smooth the surface of the batter, then lightly cover it with plastic wrap, put it in the microwave to heat, pierce it with a bamboo skewer from time to time, until the bamboo stick is no longer stained with liquid, which means the baking is successful.
5. Take out the baked cake, sprinkle with matcha powder、your favorite fruit and fresh cream, then the matcha cake is done.
Green tea cake not only has the unique aroma of green tea, but also contains the effect of green tea. One of the greatest benefits of green tea is its antioxidant effect, which is the most important part of anti-aging. Although the proportion of green tea powder in green tea cake is not very large, it is healthier than plain cream cake.
At the same time, it is worth noting that tea has a refreshing effect, and green tea powder in green tea cake can stimulate the excitement of the cerebral cortex and keep the nerve center active, so that people will not feel sleepy and better devote themselves to work. But if you are sleep deprived, it is best not to eat too many cakes containing green tea powder before going to bed.
Finally, I want to remind everyone that although the calories of green tea cakes do not seem to be many, because a lot of butter and cream are added in the production process, do not eat too much at one go, otherwise the intake of sugar will be too much.
