Product Information

If you hope to make "puffed" quinoa with a fluffy texture at home… this is not what you will get. Popped quinoa is often confused with puffed quinoa that you buy in stores or online.

Is a complete source of protein, which also contains all the essential amino acids. Perfect option for vegetarians and vegans. This recipe is not suited for either since I used regular marshmallows but you could use vegetarian or vegan marshmallow and it will be perfect. Please see the recipe card at the bottom of this post for the complete list of ingredients with measurements plus recipe instructions. Equipment Quinoa pops are pretty much what the name entails! Quinoa that has been popped or puffed. During this process the quinoa becomes slightly larger and gets a totally different texture. Moistening or soaking your quinoa overnight both work and will achieve a gorgeous golden brown toasted quinoa. The method you choose depends on how much you are willing to prepare beforehand. Directions Shake for even heat. Quinoa is the only ingredient here, and the improper heat source directly affects the quinoa and makes it burnt. Adjusting the heat temperature within the little time frame is highly impossible.I’ve been really stressed out recently with clinic work and assessments, so I’ve been craving ALL THE CHOCOLATE! I know it’s not the best thing to eat to nourish your body during periods of high level stress, but my God does chocolate help my soul and mental well being! It becomes my bestest friend 😛

Spread the mixture out evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 160’C for 8-10 minutes, just until dry and crisp. Toss once in the middle.

The first few times I tried to pop quinoa I thought I was popping it because I would hear and see a few of the seeds pop. My pan was not hot enough and I was trying to pop too much quinoa at a time so some of the seeds would pop but not all and I would leave the quinoa in the pan for too long. I was trying to encourage all the quinoa to pop but by leaving it in the pan too long I was burning the quinoa. This recipe creates a beautiful golden brown popped quinoa with a crunchy texture and a slightly nutty flavor. Some seeds may puff out a bit, but not as much as you think. Ingredients

The whole process goes by within 15-30 seconds. Blink, and you might miss it! It's only a matter of seconds until the quinoa turns from toasted to burnt! You will be able to see that the seeds of quinoa are popping similar to how corn pops. The outer shell will split and the centre will puff through with a white fluffy puff! Let the quinoa kripsy treats cool down before cutting. This will take anywhere form 20 minutes to an hour depending on how cold it is where you are.Add in the quinoa pops when everything is melted and stir around to coat them in the marshmallow mixture. Transfer to the prepared baking pan, flatten and add the sprinkles on top. You could add as little or as much as you’d like here!
