I’ve been craving a streusel cake lately and decided to experiment by pairing a crisp streusel topping with a chiffon cake recipe. So I went ahead and gave it a try! I’m so happy this combination didn’t fail my expectations. It totally brings out matcha fragrance after baking. The matcha streusel topping is crisp and crumbly, paired very well with fluffy airy cake. Best of all, preparation time is a total breeze, under 20 minutes of effort before baking!

Meringue

Instructions
- Combine all ingredients for toppings. Rub butter quickly into flour mixture until you get a coarse, crumbly texture. Keep chill in fridge for later use.
- Stir oil and milk together, blend well to emulsified stage with a hand whisk. Then add matcha powder and stir well mixture to smooth.
- Sieve cake flour and corn starch together into step 1. Stir well mixture to a thick batter. Add egg yolks, mix well again and set aside.
