📋 Ingredients
Here are the ingredients (amounts are in the recipe card below).
- White rice flour: I use plain white rice flour, but you can substitute it with brown rice flour.
- Eggs: I use large size eggs.
- Sugar: I use beet sugar in this recipe. You can use any sugar of your choice.
- Oil: I use Taihaku sesame oil squeezed raw with no fragrant aroma like regular sesame oil (pressed after roasting). You can use any oil that does not have a strong smell or flavor.

- Matcha powder: I use matcha powder made from green tea only. Please note that some matcha powder contains sugar.
- Baking powder: I use aluminum-free baking powder.
