To be completely honest when I first heard of Quinoa pancakes I was a little skeptical. I am a big fan of the standard American fluffy pancake and I didn’t like the idea of messing with my recipe that I have been using for years. When it comes to food I always pride myself on being game with anything and trying it all even if only just once.
So I decided to give it a shot and my pancakes have never been the same since! I now use quinoa for my pancakes and even in a lot of my other baked goods and they are Sooo good!
Come Sunday morning these babies are my family’s favorite treat. I hope these amazing pancakes will be welcomed in your home too!
