Instructions

Preheat waffle iron and lightly grease with oil or non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, matcha powder, baking powder, salt, and coconut sugar.
In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Scoop the batter onto the hot waffle iron and cook until waffles are golden and crisp.
Serve warm with toppings like fresh berries, yogurt, maple syrup, or a dusting of extra matcha.

Notes

For stronger flavor, increase matcha powder to 1.5 tablespoons.

Add mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts for variety.

Top with whipped coconut cream and honey for extra sweetness.

Use oat milk for a naturally sweet and creamy version.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze with parchment between waffles.

Reheat in toaster or oven for best results.

To make vegan, replace eggs with flax eggs and use non-dairy milk and coconut oil.
