Description
Whole Peach Mochi is a delectable Japanese dessert that combines the soft, chewy texture of mochi with the sweet, juicy flavor of fresh peaches. This effortless recipe captures the essence of summer in a bite-sized treat.
Ingredients
– 1 cup mochi flour
– 1/4 cup sugar
– 1/4 cup water
– 4 ripe peaches, pitted and cut into 1-inch cubes
Instructions
1. 1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mochi flour and sugar. Add the water and stir until a sticky dough forms.
2. 2. Microwave the dough for 1 minute, then stir. Repeat this process until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 3-4 minutes total.
3. 3. Lightly dust a clean surface with cornstarch. Transfer the mochi dough to the surface and knead briefly to smooth it out.
4. 4. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Flatten each piece into a round wrapper and place a cube of peach in the center.
5. 5. Gather the edges of the wrapper around the peach and gently pinch to seal, creating a ball shape.
6. 6. Serve the Whole Peach Mochi immediately or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
Notes
For best texture, serve the mochi at room temperature. Leftover mochi can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
