Quinoa Fritters

By Neat Nutrition.

Protein powder is most commonly added to post-workout smoothies or pancakes; however, it can also be a great addition to savoury recipes too. This plant-based quinoa fritters recipe is made using Neat Nutrition’s Naked Vegan Protein and is perfect for any savoury breakfast fans…

Serves: 2

Ingredients

2 tbsp. Neat Nutrition Naked Vegan Protein
½ cup oat or rice milk
1 large chia egg (1 large tbsp. of chia seeds mixed with 3 tbsp. water, left to one side until a gel forms)
¾ cup gram or buckwheat flour
½ cup cooked quinoa
1 cup loosely packed grated corguette
½ tsp. paprika
½ tsp. cumin
2 tbsp. nutritional yeast
Salt and pepper to season

Method

In a large bowl, stir together all the dry ingredients, including the corguette and quinoa. Then add the wet and mix well again until a thick, smooth batter forms.

Warm a little olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once hot, add a couple tablespoons of the batter and cook until the bottom of the fritter is browned. Flip and cook the other side until browned and cooked through.

Repeat this with the rest of your batter and serve with sliced avocado, chilli flakes and hummus!
