Crispy Quinoa Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. In large bowl, beat butter and sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. Add flour; beat until crumbly. Shape dough into flattened round; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in small bowl, toss cooked quinoa and 1 teaspoon oil to coat. Spread evenly in 15x10x1-inch pan. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, stirring once, until quinoa is light golden brown and crisp. Cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350°F. Unwrap dough. On lightly floured surface, roll dough 1/2-inch thick. Cut with 2 1/2-inch round cutter, rerolling dough as necessary. Place 1/2 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
• Bake at 350°F 16 to 20 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.
• Place sheet of waxed paper on cookie sheet. In small microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate baking chips and 1 tablespoon oil uncovered on High 30 to 60 seconds, stirring every 15 seconds, until melted and smooth. Dip half of each cookie into melted chocolate; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper. Sprinkle chocolate with black sesame seed, crispy quinoa and orange peel.

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.

Allow to cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheets, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
