Recipe
Whisk the matcha. Sift matcha into a bowl, add hot water, and whisk until frothy. Set aside.
Sweeten the milk. Stir together milk and maple syrup. Set it aside.
Mix the cinnamon sugar. Combine coarse sugar and a dash of cinnamon, then set it aside.
Froth the cream. Froth together heavy cream, maple syrup, and a dash of cinnamon until thick. Set aside.
Prepare the glass. Fill a glass with ice and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar.
Layer the latte. Pour the milk mixture, then slowly pour in the matcha.
Top and serve. Top with the cream and some Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Enjoy!
This cinnamon toast crunch matcha latte isn’t just about flavor, but reliving a delicious part of your childhood. It’s still very matcha-forward, but the cinnamon and cream add warmth and balance. Plus, it’s easy to tweak whether you want it dairy-free, less sweet, or even extra indulgent.
Make it dairy-free by swapping the milk and cream for oat milk and coconut cream for a plant-based version.
Either reduce or skip the maple syrup- the cinnamon will still bring lots of flavor!
Make it hot instead of ice. Just skip the ice and gently heat the milk before layering everything together.
Add a pinch of nutmeg and vanilla to the cream for more depth.
