Homemade Healthy Mochi

Homemade Healthy Mochi

This easy 3 ingredient dessert is inspired by a Japanese favorite: mochi! High protein, no processed sugar, and deliciously chewy. Prep time will take under 10 minutes, then just freeze until ready to eat.

You'll need: 

  • rice paper (low calorie, naturally gluten free, provides the chewy texture)
  • greek yogurt (high protein, low sugar, creamy texture)
  • fruit of choice (for flavor and filling - my favorite is frozen bananas, cinnamon, and toasted coconut flakes).

 

Prep:

  • Dip a sheet of rice paper in water, make sure both sides are damp but it doesn't need to be soaked as it'll keep softening after it's wet. Tip: Double the rice paper sheets to make it extra chewy.
  • Lay damp rice paper on a a plate and add a layer of greek yogurt.
  • Add toppings.
  • Fold each side in.
  • Add more toppings on the outside if desired.
  • Freeze 1-2 hours for a soft serve creamy texture. Freezing longer will create a harder icier texture but you can let it thaw out to soften.
