Chestnut matcha hot cake

Overview

I used cake mix (ホットケーキ) bought in Japan, which contains matcha honey. There seems to be similar cake mix available in Guneri Supermarket. Matcha honey can be made at home: matcha powder + honey.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Have all ingredients and tools ready.

   

2. 2 I found the chestnuts my mother bought N months ago in the freezer and got rid of them quickly😄

   

3. 3 Put the frozen chestnuts in the oven and bake at 180 degrees for 10 minutes. If you have fresh chestnuts at home, you can skip this step.

   

4. 4 Peel the roasted chestnuts.

   

5. 5 Crush the chestnut meat with a spoon. However, don’t break it too much ~ it’s slightly larger and tastes better.

   

6. 6 Stir together cake mix, matcha honey and milk.

   

7. 7 There are also eggs, I almost forgot.

   

8. 8 Sprinkle chopped chestnuts into the prepared cake batter and mix well. As for the amount, feel free to use it. I like chestnuts very much, so I added 4 tablespoons.

   

9. 9 Heat a non-stick pan and add oil.

   

10. 10 Pour in the mixed cake liquid and fry slowly over medium-low heat.

    

11. 11 When one side turns brown, flip over and continue frying over medium-low heat.

    

12. 12 Be sure to fry slowly and patiently over medium-low heat, otherwise it will easily burn.

    

13. 13 When eating, spread the golden osmanthus sauce pickled 2 weeks ago, which is sweet and delicious.
