It is impossible to ignore the almost meteoric rise in popularity of green tea over the past few years – it has gone from being hidden in corners of oriental supermarkets to a health and well-being staple, so it is no surprise that its stronger, more powerful cousin matcha is fast catching up on the must-have superfood list. Boasting 137 times more antioxidants than traditional green tea, the ability to improve energy, assist in weight loss and aid concentration, matcha’s credentials are extremely impressive.
So when Lovesuperfoodtea.com asked me to create a recipe with their organic matcha green tea I couldn’t refuse! After a little experimenting in the kitchen the result is my Matcha Coconut muffins.
