Ingredients
- 4 cups of all purpose flour
- 2 cups of granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 3 cups of whole milk
- 6 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons of matcha green tea powder
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 1/2 cup of powdered sugar
Instructions
Making the Crepes
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and matcha powder. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Grease the pan with a bit of butter. Once the pan is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan and swirl the pan to spread the batter out evenly. Cook for about 1-2 minutes, until the edges of the crepe start to curl up. Flip the crepe and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Transfer the crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
Assembling the Cake
Take one of the crepes and place it on a plate or cake stand. Spread 1-2 tablespoons of cream on the crepe, making sure to spread it out evenly. Top with another crepe and repeat the layering process with the remaining crepes, ending with a crepe on top.
In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add the powdered sugar and continue to whip until stiff peaks form. Spread the cream over the top of the cake, making sure to spread it out evenly. Sprinkle with a bit of matcha powder, if desired.
Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours before serving.
