  • 2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 325 g mashed ripe bananas (1 ½ cup or about 3 medium bananas)

Instructions

Notes

Ingredients:
  • Mochiko is a brand name of a popular glutinous sweet rice flour. Do not use "plain or regular rice flour." Rice flour is made from medium or long-grain rice. It will not produce the same chewy texture. 
  • Bisquick is a baking mix typically used to make pancakes, waffles, or biscuits. 
  • Neutral oils such as grapeseed oil, vegetable oil, or canola oil.
 
Storage and Leftovers: Store in an airtight container for up to three days. Keep in a cool, dry location away from heat or direct sunlight.
