  • Total Time: 1 hour
  • Yield: 68 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

For the Crepes:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp matcha powder (culinary grade)
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups milk (or plant-based alternative)
  • 1 tbsp melted butter (plus extra for cooking)
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

For the Matcha Whipped Cream:

  • 1 cup heavy cream (chilled)
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp matcha powder
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Make the Crepes:

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, matcha powder, sugar, and salt.
  • In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla. Gradually add wet ingredients to dry, whisking until smooth. Strain to remove lumps.
  • Heat a nonstick pan over medium-low heat and lightly grease with butter.
  • Pour ¼ cup of batter into the pan, swirling to coat evenly. Cook for 1–2 minutes, flip, and cook another 30 seconds. Repeat until batter is used.
  • Stack cooked crepes on a plate, covering them with a clean towel to prevent drying.

Make the Matcha Whipped Cream:

In a chilled bowl, beat heavy cream, powdered sugar, matcha powder, and vanilla until soft peaks form.

Assemble the Crepe Roll Cake:

  • Lay out a sheet of plastic wrap. Place a crepe at the bottom, then spread a thin layer of matcha whipped cream.
  • Continue layering crepes and cream, leaving the last crepe plain.
  • Gently roll the stack into a log using the plastic wrap, tightening as you go.
  • Chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour to set.

Serve:

Unwrap, slice, and dust with extra matcha powder or drizzle with white chocolate. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Sift matcha powder before use to avoid lumps.
  • Use a light hand when rolling to keep layers intact.
  • Chill overnight for an even firmer texture.
