Ingredients

• 100 grams Almond flour
• 50 grams Erythritol sweetener
• 60 milliliters Coconut cream
• 120 milliliters Unsweetened almond milk
• 100 grams Red bean paste (sugar-free)
• 30 grams Coconut flour
• 60 milliliters Water
• 1 teaspoon Stevia (optional)
• 20 grams Cornstarch (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine 100 grams of almond flour, 50 grams of erythritol sweetener, and 30 grams of coconut flour.

Step 2

Gradually add 60 milliliters of coconut cream and 120 milliliters of unsweetened almond milk to the dry ingredients. Stir until the mixture forms a smooth batter.

Step 3

Transfer the mixture to a microwave-safe bowl, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and microwave on high for 2 minutes.

Step 4

Stir the mixture thoroughly, re-cover, and microwave for an additional 2 minutes or until the dough is semi-translucent and slightly sticky but firm.

Step 5

Dust a clean work surface generously with cornstarch. Transfer the cooked dough to the surface and let it cool slightly.

Step 6

Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a small circle using your hands or a rolling pin.

Step 7

Place about 1 tablespoon of sugar-free red bean paste in the center of each dough circle.

Step 8

Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the red bean filling and pinch or twist to seal, forming a ball. Ensure the filling is completely enclosed.

Step 9

Repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling.

Step 10

To serve, lightly dust the finished mochi with additional cornstarch to prevent sticking, if desired.
