Grassy and nutty don’t sound like good bedfellows, until matcha and peanut butter prove it wrong!
Matcha and peanut butter aren’t exactly an obvious pairing. One’s grassy and a little bitter, then the other’s nutty and salty. On paper, it shouldn’t really work. But somehow, once you blend them together, it just clicks. The peanut butter smooths out the sharpness of the matcha, just as much as the matcha does the same thing for the peanut butter. With a bit of salt that ties both flavors together, this simple high-protein recipe tastes way more balanced than you’d expect.
