Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan with a bit of oil, then line the bottom with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and matcha green tea powder until well combined.
Step 3
In another bowl, mix the almond milk, vegetable oil, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Step 6
Place the cake pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 7
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Once the cake is cooled, mix the powdered sugar with water in a small bowl to create a glaze.
Step 9
Drizzle the glaze over the cake and allow it to set for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
