Instructions

Notes
- You can made homemade buttermilk by combining 1 cup (250ml) of milk with 1 tsp of vinegar (5%), allowing it to sit for 10 minutes.
- Potato starch can be used as a substitute for cornstarch.
- Ceremonial grade matcha will result in waffles with a richer green color.
-
If your sugar has larger granules, you can mix it with the wet ingredients instead of dry ingredients.
