Matcha Rolles
Matcha rolles are best straight out of the oven. These rolls are based on the traditional cinnamon rolls, but instead of cinnamon, matcha is added. The inside is a mixture of dark brown palm sugar mixed with matcha. This dark color creates a great contrast with the light green color of the dough. These rolls are ready in less than 1 hour, which makes this a must have for breakfast in weekend.
