I decided to do some crazy experimenting this morning! I was wanting to find ways to use Quinoa, a protein packed grain, in my breakfasts while mixing things up a bit :) So I got to experimenting and came up with this recipe :) It will only be good if you LIKE THE TASTE OF QUINOA Ha :) I do! I thought they were good plain and then great with the strawberries and blueberries. ENJOY!!
Yield 5-6 Pancakes
1/2 C drained sprouted quinoa (To SPROUT: soak in warm water for 8-10 hours until sprouting begins rinse every few hours if possible, but i do mine over night with no rinsing)
1/2 C mashed sweet potato (no skin, i microwaved it)
8 T canned coconut milk
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 T honey (any sweetener can be used)
2 eggs separated, beat the whites until they start to stiffen and form peaks
In a blender blend sprouted quinoa, sweet potato, coconut milk and egg yolks until smooth. Add the baking powder, baking soda, salt and honey and blend unit blended. Last add the already beaten egg whites, stir them in then blend for just a few seconds. You're done!! Now cook like good ol' fashion pancakes on a griddle or skillet, top with sliced fruit and ENJOY!!!
