Matcha Tea Biscuits

Matcha Tea Biscuits

Usually biscuits are soaked in tea, but in this recipe tea will be the main ingredient of the biscuits: Matcha Tea Biscuits.

All the power of Matcha tea in fragrant biscuits with a unique and extraordinary flavour.

The matcha tea is a fine Japanese green tea, which appears as a very fine powder with a scent and intense color.

Its beneficial properties are incredible and for this reason it is increasingly used in cooking, as a natural coloring and in the preparation of desserts and biscuits.

Delicious to dunk in tea, but they are also excellent in milk. For a rich and nutritious breakfast or for a relaxing afternoon snack. Serve them with a light dusting of icing sugar on top to make them even more beautiful!

Make biscuits using the molds you like best! Place the biscuits on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake in the oven at 180° for about 15 minutes.

They are delicious biscuits to dipped in tea, but they are also excellent in milk.

Which Matcha tea to use for biscuits?

Depending on the processing of this incredible tea you can find 3 different gradations: the Ceremonial, the Premium and the Culinary.

For this recipe I recommend you use the Grado Culinario which is very suitable for the preparation of cake and biscuit recipes.

Or a Premium Grade for a slightly stronger flavour.

The Cerimoniale Grade on the other hand is the most prized, and is used for the preparation of tea.
