Time 5h

Yield 11 to 12 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup raw white quinoa
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter (organic and grass-fed preferred), melted and cooled
1 cup coconut sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg plus 1 egg yolk, at room temperature
1 cup almond flour
1/2 cup coconut flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup bittersweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Place the quinoa in a dry pan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the quinoa is evenly toasted and beginning to pop, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool completely.
  • Add the melted butter, coconut sugar and vanilla extract to a medium bowl. Using a rubber spatula, stir to combine and soften the sugar. Add the egg and egg yolk and stir until smooth. Add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda and salt and stir until it forms a soft dough. Add the chocolate chips and quinoa and stir to evenly distribute. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop 1/4-cup balls of cookie dough evenly onto the baking sheets leaving 2 inches between each scoop. Flatten them slightly. Bake, rotating halfway through, until the edges are just set and the centers are still slightly underdone, 13 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheets, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

I'm giving this recipe one star because it's the lowest I can go. These cookies were the worst thing I've ever tasted.

These cookies were a complete disaster. I followed the recipe exactly and they still didn't turn out.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cookies came out flat and crumbly.

These cookies didn't turn out well for me. I think I may have overmixed the dough.

I found these cookies to be a bit dry. I think I'll add some extra butter or oil next time.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of quinoa, but these cookies were surprisingly good. The quinoa adds a nice texture and flavor.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover quinoa. I always have some on hand, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses it up.

I was pleasantly surprised by how well the quinoa and chocolate chips go together. The cookies are chewy and gooey, with just the right amount of sweetness.
