Equipment
- High-speed blender
- 1 cup
- Tablespoon
- Teaspooon
Ingredients
- 1 cup quinoa flakes
- 1 large banana (or 2 small bananas)
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tbsp protein powder
- 1 tsp maca powder
- 1 tbsp almond butter
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup plant-based milk
- 1/2 cup blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C (fan forced).
- Grease a small baking dish or ramekin. The baking dish I use is 18x13cm and is perfect for creating two serves.
- Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth (make sure you don’t overblend - they just need to be combined).
- Pour batter into a baking dish and top with blueberries. Slightly push them into the top.
- Pop in the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean (pending on the size of your baking dish).
- Serve immediately so it’s nice and warm. Add any additional toppings, including coconut yoghurt, sliced banana and/or cacao nibs.
