About the Recipe
Ingredients
3/4 cup quinoa
1/2 cup flour
1/8 cup chia seeds
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt, for batter
1 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt, for dusting
about 1 cup water
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In blender, food processor, or coffee grinder, grind the quinoa until it becomes a powder. This recipe calls for quinoa flour, which can be made at home or bought at the store (homemade is often less expensive).
Step 3
Pour the quinoa flour into a food processor. Add the whole wheat flour and salt.
Step 4
Begin mixing the quinoa flour, whole wheat flour, and salt. Add the olive oil one tablespoon at a time.
Step 5
Start adding water to the mixture slowly. The batter should be similar in consistency to pancake batter -- liquid, but slightly thicker.
Step 6
Then start adding in your water slowly. You want a pancake batter consistency; liquid but thicker.
Step 7
Add in the chia seeds. Make sure the chia seeds are just mixed in, not pulverized.
Step 8
Spoon about 1/2 tablespoon of the chip batter onto the prepared baking sheets. Using the back of the spoon, smooth the batter out evenly, and pretty thin. Feel free to form chips of any shape -- circles and triangles are often most common.
Step 9
Dust your chips with pink Himalayan salt and any other flavoring you might want (possibilities: garlic powder, cumin, etc.).
Step 10
Place the baking sheets into the oven. Bake for about 30 minutes, until the chips are evenly brown. Enjoy!
