Indulge in healthy dessert bliss with these unique Avocado and Black Sesame Mochi Truffles. A nutrient-rich, gluten-free treat with a creamy twist!
Ingredients
- • ripe avocado: 1 large, peeled and pitted
- • black sesame seeds: 3 tablespoons, toasted
- • mochi rice flour (glutinous rice flour): 1 cup
- • water: 3/4 cup
- • maple syrup: 2 tablespoons
- • vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
- • coconut oil: 1 teaspoon, melted
- • pinch of sea salt
- • unsweetened shredded coconut: 1/4 cup, for coating
Instructions
- 1 In a small pan over medium heat, toast the black sesame seeds for about 2-3 minutes until they become fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
- 2 In a mixing bowl, mash the avocado until smooth. Stir in the toasted black sesame seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix until well combined.
- 3 In a separate bowl, combine mochi rice flour with water and melted coconut oil. Stir until smooth. Microwave the mixture for about 2 minutes, stirring halfway through, until it becomes a sticky dough.
- 4 Allow the mochi dough to cool slightly. With dampened hands, take a small portion of the dough, flatten it, and place a spoonful of the avocado mixture in the center. Gently wrap the dough around the filling to form a ball.
- 5 Roll the formed truffles in unsweetened shredded coconut to coat. Repeat until all the avocado mixture and mochi dough are used up.
- 6 Refrigerate the truffles for at least 15 minutes before serving, allowing them to firm up slightly. Enjoy these unique, healthy treats chilled!
Serving Suggestions
- • These Exotic Avocado and Black Sesame Mochi Truffles are a delightful way to end any meal on a healthy note. Serve them chilled for a refreshing treat, perfect alongside a cup of green tea or a delicate herbal infusion.
