Rapid advice from Maven:
Use white quinoa. This makes it the best texture and taste, since it tends to be more neutral.
Crude + rinsed. It is not necessary to cook your quinoa first! Just be sure to rinse it to eliminate saponins.
Use fresh or frozen. Fresh or frozen blueberries can be used according to the season.
Let cool before cutting. Allow your bars to rest for 20 minutes before cutting.

Over the years I have had some unexpected success recipes. Usually, when I make a recipe, I know if it’s going to be popular. Other times I share something that I personally love, but I am not sure how it will land with my audience. These banana quinoa breakfast bars fall into the unexpected success category. They know delicious and have star ingredients, but I wasn’t sure how a breakfast made of quinoa was going to go.
Over the years it has become a rather popular recipe, so I thought it would use it as inspiration for these blueberry quinoa bars. These are similar with the difference that there are no bananas. I realize that some people do not like bananas, so this is a great option for anyone who does not. Let me know what you think!
Ingredients in blueberry quinoa bars
- Enrolled Avena -Take glutenless oatmeal if necessary.
- raw white quinoa – The most neutral flavor quinoa with the lighter texture … perfect for these bars! Be sure to rinse quinoa before using both to eliminate external coating and also for the final texture of the bars.
- linen seed – It helps to join the bars. It is effectively how to use a linen egg instead of regular eggs.
- Coba – Provides moisture and a light texture. Just be sure to buy the sugar -free type so you can control sweetness.
- almond butter – You can also exchange for a different seed butter or butter.
- coconut oil – Look for non -refined and/or organic coconut oil. Just be sure to melt it.
- maple syrup – A touch of additional sweetness! You could use honey, but this recipe would no longer be vegan.
- baking powder – Help the bars to climb.
- cinnamon – I love the combination of cinnamon and banana.
- sea salt – To join all flavors
- blueberries – of course! I like to use fresh but frozen can also be used and make these blueberry quinoa bars pleasant throughout the year. You could also subtitular in a different berry, if you wish.
How to make blueberry quinoa bars
Step 1: Combine dry ingredients
In a large bowl, combine rolled oatmeal, quinoa, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
Step 2: Add wet ingredients
Add apple puree, linen, almond butter, coconut oil and maple syrup. Stir until they are well combined. Fold in blueberries. Let the dough be repeated for 10 minutes to let the linen absorb a bit of liquid.
Step 3: Bake
Add the dough to the source to bake and extend evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are clear and the center is cooked.
Step 4: slice + serve
Let stand for 20 minutes before cutting into the 9-12 squares and let cool completely.
