Mochi Donuts

I posted the Mochi Donuts basic recipe a while back and my family requested Ube and Pandan flavored ones, so I figured why not. I love feeding my family and I like seeing them enjoying what I cook for them. So their wish is my command.

What are they made?

Sugar
milk
oil
tapioca starch
all-purpose flour
egg

How do you Make Mochi Donuts

Prepare the pattern: Trace the shape of a round cookie cutter and draw the distance. Set aside. Cut baking paper into square shapes and set aside. Cut the tip of a piping bag and place it in the tall grass.

Make the water roux:

Place the sugar, milk, and oil in a small saucepan and heat on low fire until steaming.
Add the flour until the mixture turns pasty and smooth.

Remove the mixture from the heat and add in the tapioca starch until it forms into a ball.

Note: Add the beaten egg. Add a minimal amount and mix and test if the mixture hangs in a V . The trick is to try each egg’s addition. Adding the whole egg may result in a very loose batter.

Mix and test if the mixture hangs in a V shape.

Shaping the Mochi Donut:

Place the dough in the piping bag. Place the see-through baking paper on top of the pattern and squeeze out the dough. Make sure that they are touching each other.

Fry the Mochi Doughnuts: Heat the cooking oil and fry the dough with the baking paper and remove it when the dough is fixed on its form. Turn and fry each side until golden brown. Let cool and glaze.

Glaze the Donuts:

Place powdered sugar and milk in a small deep bowl and mix. Add in the flavor of your choice and holding the doughnuts upside down, submerge them in the glaze. Place mochi donuts on the rack to dry.

Should I add the egg?

Test it first. Add a very small amount first. If the batter hangs in a V shape and holds on its own, stop adding the egg.

How to Store?

This recipe makes only 5 medium size donuts because Mochi Donuts are not leftover-friendly. They tend to become hard. So make just enough to consume for a moment.

Please be careful of the oil.
