Step 1
The night before, I weighed 30 grams of tricolor quinoa.Step 2
Quinoa soaked in water overnightStep 3
After washing it several times in the morning, pour water into the pot and start cooking the quinoa. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to cook. When small sprouts appear, turn off the heat and drain the water.Step 4
The pictures are of the ingredients usedStep 5
Put the ingredients in the picture above and mix them together to form a dough. Milk can be added in small amounts at a time, because cooked quinoa also contains water, so be sure to add milk carefully to avoid the dough becoming too soft. Seal with plastic wrap and let sit for 30 minutes.Step 6
Roll the dough into a large, thin sheetStep 7
Poke some small holes in the dough and cut into rectangular piecesStep 8
Preheat the oven to 170 degrees and bake for 20 minutes. If the moisture is still high after taking it out, you can adjust the oven to 150 degrees and bake again for 20 minutes.Step 9
After cooking the quinoa, remove the water and mix it directly with other ingredients. The biscuits produced in this way will be crispy and hard. So I tried another method of processing quinoa: dry the cooked quinoa, spray it with a little oil, and put it into a fruit dryer at 80 degrees to dry for 6-8 hours. Then perform the same mixing, rolling, and baking steps as above with other ingredients.Step 10
Make the dough as dry as possible, not too wet! It's better to feel a little bit scummyStep 11
Bake in the oven at 170 degrees for 18-20 minutes. The biscuits produced by this method are crisper than the first one, but the steps are a bit cumbersome.

If you make it yourself, it will not be as crispy and harder, but the biscuit tastes pretty good!
