Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Mix well to ensure all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, orange zest, and orange juice until well combined.

  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps in the batter are perfectly fine.

  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.

  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges start to look set, about 2-3 minutes.

  6. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  7. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or cooking spray to the skillet as needed.

  8. Serve the Orange Quinoa Pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with your favorite fresh fruits.
