Another amazing recipe I’ve made several times! Love the use of ground quinoa. I’ve used chia in place of the flax a couple times with good results too.
i love new ways of using traditional ingredients , thank you
Hello,I love your recipes and I want to make these,only I have a question, do i cook the quinoa or I blend it as it is? I am new to this as you can understand 🙂 thank you so much for all the inspiration and thank you in advance for your reply! Love, Tina
Can I use coconut flour? Also, can I substitute applesauce for the oil?
you can use a combination of oat, almond and coconut flours. sure you can use apple sauce or more mashed banana.
