A very interesting aspect of this tasty bread is that you can slice it and freeze the slices, as it keeps perfectly in the freezer. Then, to eat it, you simply toast the frozen quinoa bread slices, and in no time they're ready to enjoy.

Quinoa bread is perfect for making toast or as a side dish. It's delicious on its own, sliced, but toasted and topped with avocado, guacamole, or hummus, it becomes a truly tasty treat.

How to make quinoa bread

We start by washing the quinoa well and soaking it for at least 4 hours, although it's better if we leave it overnight.

On the other hand, since flaxseed also needs to be soaked beforehand, although for a shorter time, we'll prepare it about an hour before starting the recipe. To do this, chop 60 grams of flaxseeds; they don't need to be ground into a powder, just lightly chopped.

We chop the flax seedsQuinoa Bread Recipe - Grandgoldman.com

We mix the flax seeds with 125 ml of water and let them soak for 1 hour. This will allow the seeds and water to form a kind of gel that will give structure to the bread.

After soaking the quinoa and flaxseed, we can begin making the quinoa bread. First, we'll drain the quinoa well and rinse it again. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) with the top and bottom elements on.
