Protein Packed Quinoa Pancakes with Apple
Author: Cassie from The Thrifty Couple
Recipe type: Breakfast
Serves: 5
- 1⅓ cup cooked quinoa (Use slightly over cooked quinoa as it binds better as it is a bit sticky)
- ¼ cup + 2 tbs oat flour
- 2 tablespoons flaxseed, ground
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 eggs
- 1 apple, peeled and grated
- 2 tablespoons almond milk
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- Spray a pan with non stick and pre heat to medium. Combine the quinoa, flour, flaxseed and cinnamon in a bowl and mix until combined.
- Add in the eggs, syrup and apple and mix. Stir in the almond milk.
- Let sit briefly (1-2 minutes) on the counter and the batter will thicken.
- Use a silicone spatula to portion out and form the pancakes into the pan. Because this isn't a liquid life batter, you'll need to shape the pancakes.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes or until brown on one side. Flip and repeat until cooked through (one to two minutes).
- Remove from the pan and top with maple syrup!
- Makes five pancakes.
