Oat Milk Me Up for Plant-based Recipes: Homemade Matcha Latte

Here’s my recipe! 

I am a huge fan of Minor Figures’ brand and packaging and I’m so glad that these plant-based drink options are now very within reach. Being the food experimenter I am, I made some Matcha Latte using Minor Figures Oat Milk (Barista Blend).

Ingredients: 

1. ½ cup Minor Figures Oat Milk (Barista Blend)

2. ½ tsp Matcha Powder (Any brand is good – I used Craft Tea Fox’s Uji Matcha Powder) 

3. Milk Frother (optional) / Matcha Whisk 

4. Hot Water

5. 1 tbsp brown sugar 

Recipe Directions: 

1. Heat up Minor Figures Oat Milk. 

2. Mix Matcha Powder to ¼ cup hot water.

3. Whisk with a matcha whisk or a normal whisk till the mixture foams. 

4. Add oat milk to a glass cup. Pour in the matcha mixture. *remember to add ice if you prefer an iced drink!

5. Take some aesthetic photos. 

6. Add sugar or natural sweetener (if needed).

7. Use the milk frother (optional) or a spoon to milk the mixture evenly. 

8. There you have it – Matcha Oat Latte! 

Notes:

1. Drink this hot or iced – either way, it tastes great! 

2. Add a shot of espresso if you want a Coffee-Matcha fusion. 

3. The type of Matcha Powder used is very important for the quality and taste of the drink. Consume the Matcha Powder within 1 to 2 weeks from the time purchased to retain its taste and aroma (varies by brand)!

4. Turn this into a Matcha Chia Seed Pudding by adding in 2 tbsp of chia seeds and leaving them in the fridge overnight.
