Ingredients:
1/2 cup quinoa
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 eggs
1/4 cup skim milk (I used almond milk)
2 Tbsp maple syrup (I didn't have any, so I added butterscotch chips and bananas instead)
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup water to a boil. Stir in quinoa. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Cool.
2. In a bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, and cooled quinoa. In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and maple syrup. Whisk liquid mixture into quinoa mixture until combined.
3. Heat large, non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. In batches, add batter to pan by 1/4 cup amounts. Cook for 2 minutes or until bubbles form on surface and edges are golden. Turn and cook another 2 minutes.
Serve with maple syrup if you desire. I had peanut butter on mine and it was delicious!
