Recipe: Strawberry Matcha Loaf with Strawberry Glaze with Cho’s Bakeshop Vanilla Cupcake Mix
Newly arrived at Pearl River Mart Foods are Cho's Bakeshop mixes, and we're already eating them up! Check out the recipe below.
Ingredients
1 package Cho’s Bakeshop Vanilla Cupcake Mix
For the mix:
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup canola or avocado oil
- ½ cup buttermilk (or ½ cup milk with 1 tsp rice vinegar)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract, optional
Additionally:
- 2 tsp ceremonial grade matcha
- 8 oz fresh strawberries + extra to decorate the cake, optional
- 2 Tbsp raw cane sugar
- 2 Tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp cornstarch
Recipe
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Mix the batter according to package directions, reserving 3 Tbsp of the cupcake flour mix for the strawberry-flavored batter (see below). Divide the mixture evenly into 3 bowls.
- Puree the strawberries. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of the puree and stir to combine. It will be runny — add the reserved flour mix for a thicker consistency.
- In the second bowl of batter, stir in the matcha powder until well combined.
- Oil a loaf pan and drizzle in the batter in layers, alternating the colors. Insert a small spatula or spoon handle into the batter and zigzag first the length, then the width of the loaf pan to create a marble pattern.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Test doneness with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, it’s done, otherwise bake for 3 to 5 more minutes.
- Prepare the strawberry glaze in a small saucepan with the remaining strawberry puree, sugar, powdered sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Stir to combine evenly. Simmer at medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes until thickened. Let cool.
- Let the loaf cool for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a plate or cooling rack. Drizzle the strawberry glaze on top of the loaf and decorate with fresh strawberry slices, if using.
Enjoy!
