Matcha cake recipe without wheat flour
Sophie and François
This matcha cake recipe is our favorite! It doesn't contain wheat flour, but the cake is still moist and fluffy. You can also add blueberries, white chocolate chips or salted butter caramel.
Prep Time 10 minutes mins
Cook Time 35 minutes mins
Total Time 45 minutes mins
- 150 g spelt flour
- 10 g matcha powder
- 170 g sugar
- 1 yogurt
- 1/2 package baking powder
- 2 eggs
Preheat your oven to 180° (thermostat 6). Butter and flour a cake tin.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together briskly. You will see your mixture whiten. Then add the yogurt, flour, yeast and mix again. Concerning the whisk, we advise you the one from De Buyer which is really good to mix and make the mixture airy and light.
You will have a smooth, lump-free paste. Add your matcha tea powder and mix well.
Place your dough in the cake pan and bake for 35 minutes at half height. To check if your cake is cooked, prick it in the center with a knife and check that the blade comes out clean. If you see raw dough on the blade, your cake is not cooked enough. Once cooked, enjoy it immediately with a tea. For those with a sweet tooth, you can serve it with salted butter caramel and homemade whipped cream for example.
