Recipe's preparation

    This is a nutty and tasty gluten free bread and doesn't that doesn't require too many ingredients (picture also from Teresa Cutter www.thehealthychef.com)
  1.  

    Preheat oven to 160c (fan forced) or 180c


    Soak quinoa in cold water overnight in the fridge in a bowl.


    Soak chia seed in 1/2 cup water until gell like – about 1 minute.


    Drain the quinoa and rinse well through a sieve. Make sure the water is fully drained.


    Put quinoa, chia gell, 1/2  cup of water, olive oil, bicarb soda, sea salt and lemon juice into thermomix bowl.


      Mix 90 seconds/speed 7 Mix.  The  mix should resemble a batter consistency with some whole quinoa still left in the mix.


    Spoon into a loaf tin lined with baking paper on all sides and the base.


    Bake for 1 ½ hours until firm to touch and bounces back when pressed with your fingers.  The bread needs a long time to cook for the quinoa to become tender.


    Remove from the oven and cool for 30 minutes in the tin. Remove from  tin and cool completely on a rack. The bread should be slightly moist in the middle and crisp on the outside. Cool completely before eating.


    When cold cut thin slices with a serrated knife.


    Store wrapped in the fridge for up to 1 week (can be frozen for upto 3 months - slice first)


    Delicious lightly toasted on a pan.

     

     

    NOTES:

    The whole seed must be used.
    Any colour quinoa seed will work.
    Store wrapped in an airtight container or glad wrap in the fridge to keep it fresh
    Can be frozen for up to 3 months.
