How to Make Strawberry Mochi Donuts (Step-by-Step) :
♡ Step 1 – Prepare the dough :
• In a mixing bowl, combine glutinous rice flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and sugar.
• Add milk and melted butter, mixing gently until a smooth, slightly sticky dough forms.
♡ Step 2 – Shape your donuts :

♡ Step 3 – Fry the donuts :
• Heat oil in a pan to 170°C (340°F).

• Remove and drain on a paper towel to get rid of excess oil.
♡ Step 4 – Make the strawberry glaze :
• In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar with strawberry purée until smooth.

♡ Tips for the Perfect Mochi Donuts :
• Use glutinous rice flour for that soft, chewy texture.
