Notes
Always use high-quality matcha for the best flavor and color.
Do not overbake these delicious treats; they should remain slightly soft in the center for that perfect chewy texture.
Overmixing the batter can lead to tough blondies, so mix just until combined.
Using room temperature ingredients also helps create a smoother, more uniform batter.
Allow them to cool completely before cutting for clean, neat slices.
Store leftover matcha blondies at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days.
For longer storage, freeze individual squares for up to 2 months. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe bag.
Thaw frozen blondies at room temperature for a few hours before serving. Reheating is generally not necessary.
