Ingredients

  • 150 gr Quinoa
  • 80g of 00 flour (wholemeal is also fine)
  • 300 ml of milk
  • 80 g of raw cane sugar
  • 30 gr butter
  • 1 egg
  • 80 gr of chocolate chips

Preparation

  • First, we boil the quinoa in milk, this way its flavour will be more delicate.
  • Let it cool and then mix it with the flour, sugar, soft butter and egg.
  • The consistency will be very soft but compact and uniform
  • Wrap it in cling film as if it were shortcrust pastry and put it in the fridge for about 20 minutes.
  • Once the necessary time has passed, we take the mixture again and add the chocolate chips
  • Now, with the help of two spoons, form some balls and flatten them slightly until they form discs.
  • Line a baking tray with baking paper, place the biscuits on it and bake at 180° in a static oven for about 20 minutes.
