Matcha Brownies

These are by far the best fudgy matcha brownies recipe, made for my fellow matcha lovers. They have the perfect crinkled crust, a moist fudgy center, are not too sweet, and are packed with a deep matcha flavor.

Ingredients

½ cup +1 tablespoon unsalted butter 127 g
½ cup white chocolate chips 120 g
1 cup all-purpose flour 120 g
2 tablespoons matcha powder 12 g
½ teaspoon salt 3 g
3 large eggs room temperature
¾ cup granulated sugar 150 g
½ cup light brown sugar 100 g packed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 5 g

Instructions

Prepare the oven and pan. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Line an 8x8-inch pan with butter and parchment paper.
Melt the butter and white chocolate. In a heatproof bowl set over a small pot of water (a double boiler), on medium heat, melt the butter and white chocolate until smooth, stirring periodically with a spatula. Alternatively, you can melt the butter and chocolate in the microwave in 15-second increments, mixing between each 15-second interval until melted. Set aside to cool slightly.
Add the sugar. Then add the white and brown sugar and mix until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture looks thick and glossy.
Combine egg and vanilla. Then add the eggs one at a time, whisking after each egg for about 1-2 minutes by hand or on medium speed. Whisk until the batter is airy, smooth, and shiny. Then whisk in the vanilla until combined.
Combine the dry ingredients. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, matcha powder, and salt until combined.
Combine dry and wet ingredients. Sift the matcha flour mixture into the wet mixture. Then gently fold until just combined.
Bake. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 24-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean with a few sticky crumbs but no wet batter.
Cool. Allow the brownies to cool in the pan on the counter for at least 20 minutes, then remove them from the pan onto a wire rack to cool completely. Slice when cooled.
