1/2 teaspoon of baking soda

Instructions:
1. Turn the oven on to 400°F and place a baking sheet lined with parchment paper into the oven.
2. Mix all the dry ingredients first (flour, sugar, matcha, and baking soda) then whisk in the wet ingredients (milk, yogurt, and egg) until the batter is free of any lumps.
3. Oil the inside of a metal cookie cutter and the pan.
4. Place the cookie cutter in the middle of the pan over low heat. Pour batter 2/3 of the way of the cutter and place a lid to cover.
