This is my first attempt at these cookies, they are gluten free and vegan!<\/p>\n<h3>Quinoa Protein Cookies<\/h3>\n<p>Prep Time: 10 minutes<br \/>\nCooking Time: 12 minutes<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0<strong>&#8211; Serves 15-20 cookies\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 1\/2 cups of quinoa flakes<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup quinoa flour<\/li>\n<li>1 cup protein powder (I used <a title=\"Earth Protein\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bulknutrients.com.au\/buy\/earth-protein\/EARTH\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Earth Protein Vanilla<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup of shredded coconut (unsweetened)<\/li>\n<li>Pinch of salt<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup organic coconut oil<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup of organic honey<\/li>\n<li>1 tsp of bi-carb soda (baking soda)<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons of water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Preparation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Preheat the oven to 160C (325F) fan forced, adjust your oven as you&#8217;ll know best.<\/p>\n<p>Step 1. Combine the following ingredients in a bowl (quinoa flakes, quinoa flour, protein powder, shredded coconut) mix these together well and make a well in the centre.<\/p>\n<p>Step 2.\u00a0Heat the coconut oil and honey so that they mix well together, stir frequently, add the water and the bicarbonate soda. Continue to stir until everything is well mixed.<\/p>\n<p>Step 3. Add the liquid to the dry ingredients\u00a0and mix well.<\/p>\n<p>step 4.\u00a0Lay some baking paper on\u00a0a medium-sized oven tray and then oil the baking paper, roll the mixture into balls about 2 cm and then press down on the tray, leave a 2-3 cm gap between each one.<\/p>\n<p>Step 5.\u00a0Bake in the oven at the same pre-heated temperature of 160C (325F) degrees for 12-15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Step 6. Leave the cookies on a cooling rack when their ready to eat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Observations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I have to say that they taste really good, just slightly dry. I left some in for 12 minutes and some for 15 minutes. The ones that I left in for a little longer were crunchy around the edges so I think I&#8217;ll aim to do that next time. I also think they need a fruit, like a sultana or a raisin or goji berry. I&#8217;ll report back on how the fruit contributes to the flavour\u00a0to them in the next batch.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>PS. No nutrition panel this time because half the ingredients aren&#8217;t listed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve wanted to make a gluten free cookie for a while and so I checked my cupboard to see what I had and came up with the following. \u00a0I make all my food and\u00a0I don&#8217;t have many\u00a0snacks and decided to make my own.\u00a0My snacks need to be something that is &hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more\"> <a class=\"ast-button\" href=\"https:\/\/randomadult.local\/quinoa-protein-cookies-attempt-one\/\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Quinoa Protein Cookies (Attempt One)<\/span> Read More \u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[40,58,70,79,156,161,206],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v20.11 (Yoast SEO v20.11) -
