Ingredients

• 1 cup Glutinous rice flour
• 2 tablespoons Stevia or monk fruit sweetener
• 3/4 cup Water
• 1/2 cup Cornstarch
• 2/3 cup Mango, ripe and pureed
• 1/4 cup Coconut cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, mix the glutinous rice flour and the stevia or monk fruit sweetener together until evenly combined.

Step 2

Gradually add the water to the flour mixture while stirring continuously until smooth. Ensure there are no lumps left in the mixture.

Step 3

Prepare a steaming setup by filling a pot with water and bringing it to a gentle boil. Place a steaming basket over the pot.

Step 4

Pour the flour mixture into a heatproof bowl that can fit into the steaming basket and cover the bowl with aluminum foil to prevent water droplets from directly falling onto the dough.

Step 5

Steam the dough on medium heat for about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the dough turns glossy and elastic.

Step 6

While the dough is steaming, prepare the mango filling: In a separate bowl, combine the pureed mango, coconut cream, and vanilla extract, mixing well until the filling is smooth and creamy. Set aside.

Step 7

Once the dough is done, generously spread about half the cornstarch on a clean surface and remove the dough from the bowl onto the cornstarch.

Step 8

Dust your hands with cornstarch and divide the dough into 10 equal portions. Flatten each dough piece into a circle with your hands.

Step 9

Place about a teaspoon of mango filling into the center of each dough piece, then carefully fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal it completely.

Step 10

Gently shape each piece into a smooth ball, ensuring the filling is completely enclosed by the dough.

Step 11

Coat each mochi ball liberally with the remaining cornstarch to prevent sticking. If desired, lightly tap off any excess cornstarch before serving.

Step 12

Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one day. Enjoy your sugar-free mango mochi!
