Chocolate Quinoa Crunch Squares


Just three ingredients and super easy to make, quinoa is gluten free and a high protein grain, here we toast the quinoa to give it a nutty crispy taste and then top with some goji berries and pistachios for a pop of colour!

Takes 50 minutes

Serves 12

Ingredients
 

  • 200 g Chocolate 1 ¼ cups, chopped or chips
  • 200 g Almond butter/peanut butter ¾ cup
  • 100 g Quinoa uncooked (½ cup)

Decoration

  • Handful Shelled pistachio

Instructions
 

  • Toast the quinoa: Heat a saucepan over low-medium heat, add the quinoa, and stir until it starts popping, this should take approx 5 mins. Stir for another minute, then remove from heat.
  • Melt the chocolate: Melt the chocolate, in a bain marie/ water boiler or in the microwave
  • Add the peanut butter: Stir in the almond butter or peanut butter to the chocolate.
  • Combine and prepare: Mix everything well, then line a baking tray with parchment paper. We used a small tray that was 16cm x 12cm x 5cm high
  • Set the mixture: Pour the mixture onto the parchment-lined container and sprinkle over some goji berries and shelled pistachios, freeze for 30 mins or leave to set in the fridge for 2 hours
