In my previous post, I shared all the benefits of matcha and as promised, below I'm sharing 15 mouth watering food + drink recipes using matcha courtesy of my partners at OWL Venice!
3 Step Classic Matcha
Mix ½ tsp. of OWL Venice Matcha with 1 shot of filtered water (hot or cold) Note: if you use hot, do not boil!
Whisk, shake, or blend until smooth. Whisk well in zig-zag patterns until matcha is dissolved. I love my OWL Venice bamboo tea whisk which works best for this.
Add shot to hot water for tea, milk (I like cashew milk) for a latte, or blend into smoothies. Optional: I like to add a dash of maple syrup as well!

Witch Fingers: Halloween Cookies
Prep + Bake Time: 30 minutes
Made with almond flour, pure maple sugar + organic matcha powder.
Dairy-Free, Egg-Free, Gluten-Free, Soy-Free + Vegan.
INGREDIENTS
2 cups Almond Flour
5 tablespoons Maple Syrup
3 tablespoons Coconut Oil (melted)
2 teaspoons OWL Venice Matcha Powder
1/4 teaspoon Peppermint Extract (optional)
1/8 teaspoon fine Sea Salt
1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
13 Dark Chocolate Chunks
13 Sliced Almonds (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350ºF + line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, stir together the almond flour, maple syrup, coconut oil, matcha powder, peppermint, salt, baking soda + apple cider vinegar. Stir well until a sticky batter is created.
Use a heaping tbsp to scoop the dough + then roll it between your hands to form a log. Press the log onto the lined baking sheet + use your fingers to gently pinch the log to form a "finger" shape. Use a knife to score some "wrinkle" lines into the finger. Press a chocolate chunk into the end of each finger. Bake the cookies at 350ºF until lightly golden around the edges, about 10 minutes.
To make a witch finger, place a sliced almond over the melted chocolate chip after you remove the cookies from the oven. The chocolate will harden as it cools + will hold the almond in place. To make a monster finger leave off almond! Let the cookies cool completely before serving. Serve on a bed of coconut flakes or get creative!
