@airfryergirluk shares her tasty recipe for matcha Victoria sponge cakes

Ingredients

  • Makes 4 small cakes
  • 200g caster sugar 
  • 200g unsalted butter
  • 4 eggs
  • 200g self-raising flour
  • ½ teaspoon matcha powder
  • Jam
  • Clotted cream
  • Strawberries
  • Icing sugar (optional)

Method 

  1. Add the caster sugar and unsalted butter to a bowl, then cream until smooth
  2. Mix in 4 eggs
  3. Sieve self-raising flour into the mixture, then sieve your matcha powder and give everything a good mix until smooth
  4. Equally split the mixture into 4x4 silicone moulds. Using the back of a spoon, smooth each mould so the mixture is level
  5. Pop them in the air fryer. Use bake mode on 160°C for 20 to 25 minutes – check on your bakes with a metal skewer to see if they’re baked
  6. When ready, take the bakes out of the air fryer and leave to cooldown 
  7. Slice each cake evenly in half length ways, then add a dollop of jam to the bottom half followed by some clotted cream
  8. Thinly slice some strawberries and pop them on top of the clotted cream
  9. Add the top of the cake onto the bottom, to make a sandwich
  10. To decorate, add a dollop of cream to the top of the sandwich, add some strawberries and sprinkle with icing sugar 
  11. Repeat steps 7 to 9 for each cake
