* Step 2

Matcha streusel: Using a pastry blender or a fork, cut the butter into the flour, matcha powder, and sugar mixture until it resembles a coarse meal. Set aside in the fridge until needed.

* Step 3

Matcha pound cake: Using an electric mixer or hand whisk, beat butter and sugar together until creamy and fluffy.

* Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until loose. Gradually add the lightly beaten egg into the butter. Mix briefly after every addition and scrape the bowl as needed.

* Step 5

Sieve the flour and baking powder into the butter mixture. Using a silicone spatula, mix just until combined.

* Step 6

Take out half of the batter and set it aside. Sieve in the matcha powder into the remaining batter. Mix again just until combined with a spatula.

* Step 7

Assembly: Line parchment paper into a 2.75″ x 6.5″ x 2.25″ (7 x 16.5 x 6 cm) deep pan or simply butter and flour the pan. *if using a standard 8″ x 4″ (22 x 12 cm) loaf pan, you can double this recipe and bake it longer or until a toothpick inserted in the cake center comes out clean.

* Step 8

Spread the matcha batter evenly into the pan. (Optional) Using a spoon, drag the batter lengthwise from 1 end to another, to make a groove on the center.

* Step 9

Add the yellow batter and spread evenly. Then cover the batter with matcha streusel on top.

* Step 10

Bake in a preheated oven at 340°F (170°C) for 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from the pan immediately to cool.
