Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 tbsp matcha powder, and 2 tbsp milk until smooth. Add more milk if needed to reach a thick but pourable glaze.

  2. Step 2

    Melt 2 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the 2 croissants cut-side down and toast until golden and crisp, about 2 minutes per side.

  3. Step 3

    Remove croissants from the skillet and let cool slightly on a wire rack for 2 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Drizzle the matcha glaze generously over the warm croissants. Dust with extra powdered sugar if desired. Serve immediately.
