Servings: 3
Ingredients
- 8-12 fresh strawberries
- 1 can chilled coconut cream
- 1/2-1 tbsp matcha powder
- 2 tsp maple syrup
- 4-6 slices white bread
Instructions
- In a chilled bowl, transfer the can of the whipping cream. Sift in the matcha powder to prevent clumps. Add maple syrup (optional).
- Whip using a hand mixer or whisk until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
- Layout two slices of bread. Spread a thick, even layer of matcha cream on one slice. Arrange strawberries in a line or pattern diagonally.
- Top up with more matcha cream and even out. Gently press the other bread slices on top.
- Wrap the sandwich tightly in plastic wrap to hold the shape. Draw a line across the centre of the strawberries to slice them accurately later on. Chill in the fridge for 15-30 minutes.
- Unwrap and carefully slice the sandwich in half.
