Ingredients

Scale

Donut Batter

  • 1 cup glutinous rice flour (mochi flour)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk (or any milk of your choice)
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries (pureed)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Toppings (Optional)

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk (for glaze)
  • Fresh strawberries (sliced, for garnish)
  • Shredded coconut (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Donut Batter: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan. In a mixing bowl, combine the glutinous rice flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, mix the coconut milk, pureed strawberries, and vanilla extract until well combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until smooth and well combined.
  2. Bake the Donuts: Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15–18 minutes, or until the donuts are set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  3. Prepare the Glaze (Optional): In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk or powdered sugar as needed.
  4. Assemble and Serve: Once the donuts are completely cool, dip the tops in the glaze or drizzle it over the donuts. Top with sliced fresh strawberries and shredded coconut if desired. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for later enjoyment.

Notes

  • Ensure the donuts are fully cooled before glazing to prevent the glaze from melting off.
  • You can substitute the coconut milk with any milk of your choice, such as almond or dairy milk.
  • For a more intense strawberry flavor, consider adding a few drops of strawberry extract to the batter.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
  • Reheat gently in a microwave for a few seconds before serving to regain softness.
