Ingredients

• 1 cup glutinous rice flour
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 large egg white
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 for greasing non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the glutinous rice flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, lightly beat the egg white until it becomes frothy.

Step 3

Add the almond milk and vanilla extract to the beaten egg white, stirring until combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a whisk until just combined. Do not overmix. The batter should be smooth and slightly thick.

Step 5

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Lightly coat the skillet with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 6

Pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Gently spread the batter into a round pancake shape if needed.

Step 7

Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges start to look set.

Step 8

Using a spatula, carefully flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Repeat with the remaining batter, re-greasing the skillet as necessary.

Step 10

Serve the mochi pancakes warm, with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, honey, or a light drizzle of syrup.
