I'm not sure how to post recipes on the Challenge Recipe Blog, but I have a few recipes to share, so you will probably notice a few on here over the next few days.
- 1/4 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed well and pat dry with paper towel
- 1 1/2 cups rolled oats*
- 1/4 cup ground flaxseeds
- 1/4 cup pepitas (or other seed)
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup real maple syrup (or honey) - I used agave
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree - I used homemade pumpkin puree I had in the freezer
- 1 tsp oil (coconut or canola)
- 1 tsp pumpkin spice (or more to taste)
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- pinch kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
I also added some wheat germ and sunflower seeds
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325° F.
Spread oats* and quinoa out on a parchment lined baking pan. Toast in the oven 10 minutes, stirring once.
Remove the oats from the oven, pour the toasted oats into a medium bowl and add the ground flaxseeds, pepitas, pecans and dried fruit.
Reduce oven to 300° F.
In a second medium bowl, combine maple syrup, pumpkin puree, oil, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, salt and vanilla. Pour over oats and stir together with a spatula. Spread back onto a baking sheet and bake an additional 20 minutes, or until golden.
Makes 3 2/3 cups.
