4 tbsp Butter
1 tsp Matcha powder

Method
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a cake pan with parchment paper or grease it with butter and flour.
Sift the dry ingredients: Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and matcha powder. Set aside.
Whisk wet ingredients: In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the eggs and vanilla. Whisk until well combined.
Add butter, oat milk, and ricotta: Add the butter, oat milk, and ricotta to the egg mixture. Mix until smooth and whipped in consistency.
Mix dry ingredients into wet: Switch to the paddle attachment and lower the mixer speed. Gradually add the sifted dry ingredients to the ricotta mixture and mix until just combined.
Bake the cake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and place it in the oven. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool the cake: Remove from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for 10-20 minutes. Then, remove the cake from the pan and place it on a cooling rack for another 10 minutes.
Finish the cake: Dust the cake with powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of matcha powder. Serve and enjoy!
Store the cake: Store in a sealed container for up to 4 days after baking.
