Matcha Crepes. Soft, delicious crepes with a wonderful matcha flavour. This is the perfect breakfast or dessert to have with some nutella and berries!
Jump to:
These matcha crepes are sweet, chewy and so easy to make with 8 simple ingredients in 30 minutes! They serve well for breakfast, brunch or as a dessert. Matcha crepes can be found at select dessert shops or brunch restaurants but they're usually quite pricey as they're loaded with toppings. You can easily make them at home for fraction of the cost.
My husband actually created this recipe and I am sharing it here with you all so you can make some tasty crepes yourself. For those of you who don't know, he is an avid crepe maker and loves to make crepes for me. I personally love enjoying matcha crepes with chocolate nutella and strawberries!
Ingredients
You will need the following ingredients for my easy matcha crepes recipe:
- Butter: for greasing the pan
Crepe Batter
- All-purpose flour: or substitute with whole wheat flour if you wish
- Salt
- Matcha powder
- Large eggs
- Milk of choice: dairy-milk, nut milk or oat milk work well.
- Cold water
- Melted butter: or substitute with dairy-free butter of your choice
- Maple Syrup: or honey
- Vanilla extract
How to Make Matcha Crepes
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Sift in the matcha powder and whisk it into the flour mixture.
- Then add in the wet ingredients. Whisk together until batter comes together. Do not over mix. It should be runny and not thick.
- Grease a medium size pan (about 8-inches wide) and bring to medium heat.
- Once pan is hot, pour ⅓ cup into the pan. Swirl the batter to form a thin crepe. If you have a crepe spreader that would be the best tool to help flatten the batter. Fry until the bottom is cooked.
- Flip over and fry on the other side until cooked. Repeat this for the remaining batter.
- Enjoy with your favourite toppings, like nutella and fresh fruit (bananas or berries).
Storage & Reheating
Leftover matcha crepes will last up to 4 days stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. To reheat, microwave for 2-3 minutes until hot or reheat in a pan on medium heat.
Expert Tips
- Sift in the matcha powder after combining the flour and salt. This prevents any clumps.
- Do not overmix the batter. This leads to less chewy crepes.
- Allow the pan to get hot enough before adding your crepe batter.
- Swirl the batter quickly in the pan.
