Instructions
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and line a cake pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the wet ingredients - soy milk, oil, and maple syrup. Whisk them together until well blended.
  3. Place a strainer over the bowl and add the dry ingredients - flour, baking powder, and matcha powder.
  4. Gently sift the dry ingredients into the bowl, allowing them to incorporate smoothly with the wet mixture. Using a spatula, carefully mix all the ingredients together.
  5. Once the batter is well combined, pour it into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly. Score the surface with a knife or skewer.
  6. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for approximately 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool on a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Storage: It will last for five days at room temperature and one month in the freezer.
  • Substitute: You can substitute soy milk with your favorite milk, such as oat milk or almond milk. You can use oil that doesn't have a strong smell.
  • Be cautious not to overmix, as this can result in a denser cake. Aim for a light and fluffy consistency.
