The addition of cooked quinoa to my regular buttermilk pancake batter results in a thick, moist pancake that's hefty but not heavy.

Categories     breakfast, brunch, easy, quick, main course

Time 20m

Yield 15 pancakes (five servings)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup whole-wheat flour
1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 cup cooked quinoa (any type)
1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries or other fruit, like sliced bananas, strawberries or raisins optional

Steps:

  • Sift together the flours, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt.
  • In another bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the buttermilk and whisk together, then whisk in the vanilla extract and the oil.
  • Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, and quickly whisk together. Do not overbeat; a few lumps are fine. Fold in the quinoa.
  • Heat a griddle over medium-hot heat. If necessary, brush with butter or oil. Drop 3 to 4 tablespoons onto the hot griddle. Place six to eight blueberries (or several slices of banana or strawberries) on each pancake. Cook until bubbles begin to break through, two to three minutes. Turn and cook on the other side for about a minute or until nicely browned. Remove from the heat, and continue cooking until all of the batter is used up.

APPLE-CINNAMON QUINOA PANCAKES



Apple-Cinnamon Quinoa Pancakes image

My daughter and daughter-in-law got me hooked on quinoa. I dressed up a regular pancake recipe to create these delicious apple-cinnamon breakfast treats. The shredded apple remains slightly crunchy with the short cooking time, and it nicely complements the chewy texture of the quinoa. -Sue Gronholz, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin

JOEY'S QUINOA PANCAKES



Joey's Quinoa Pancakes image

I've made these twice now and I have to say I just love the taste! I made my own corn flour from the Hopi Corn we grew in our garden. I think the fact that it was fresh really added to the delicious taste of these pancakes. I got the original recipe from the Quinoa Flour bag, but changed some of the ingredients to make it Vegan. I guesstimated it took about 2-3 minutes per side of pancake, but you will know when the bubbles form and the pancake has risen that it's time to flip it. You can always peek under the pancake to see if it's golden brown, then it's time to flip it. I doubled this recipe and it turned out just fine.

1 tablespoon raw sugar

1 cup coconut milk (or other non dairy milk)
1 tablespoon lime juice (or lemon added to the milk to make it sour aka butter milk)
1 egg substitute (I used Ener-G)

Steps:

  • Put the lime juice into the non-dairy milk.
  • Combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl and mix together well.
  • Then, add in the sour milk, prepared egg substitute and the oil into the dry ingredients.
  • Whisk together well.
  • NOTE: Put about 1/4 cup of the batter into the hot oiled pan pan.
  • Fry in a non-stick pan until bubbles form on the top of the pancakes. Then flip and cook the other side. You might have to add a tiny bit more oil for each new batch you cook. It depends on the pan.
  • Serve warm with vegan margarine and maple syrup -- mmmm.
  • Bon Appetit!

GLUTEN-FREE QUINOA PANCAKES



GLUTEN-FREE QUINOA PANCAKES image

Categories     Breakfast     Quick & Easy     Healthy

Yield 1 4 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup cooked Quinoa (certified gluten-free if necessary)
1/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon
pinch of Sea Salt
1/4 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
2 large Eggs

Steps:

  • Heat a large, lightly greased skillet or griddle over medium heat. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and pour batter onto skillet, forming 4 pancakes. Cook slowly for 3-5 minutes on the first side, until pancakes are set. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Serve with maple syrup, honey, nut butter and/or fresh fruit.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your pancakes will be.
  • Mash the bananas well: Make sure to mash the bananas until they are completely smooth, with no lumps.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the pancakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking: This will allow the oats to absorb some of the liquid and make the pancakes more tender.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat: Cooking the pancakes over too high heat will make them brown too quickly and not cook through in the middle.
  • Flip the pancakes only once: Flipping the pancakes too often will make them break apart.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately: Quinoa pancakes are best served warm, so serve them immediately after they are cooked.

Conclusion:

Quinoa pancakes are a healthy and delicious breakfast option that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them plain, with fruit, or with syrup, quinoa pancakes are a great way to start your day.
