Puffed Quinoa Oat Squares

January, 2016

Here’s a no-bake square that’s big on delicious flavours and healthy options.

  • 6 tbsp walnut oil
  • 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 4 tbsp maple syrup
  • 4 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 1/2 cups puffed quinoa cereal
  • 3/4 cup oats
  • 1/3 cup chopped raw pistachios (unsalted)
  • 1/2 cup freeze-dried raspberries
  • 1/4 cup coconut flakes (unsweetened if you prefer)

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the walnut oil, melted coconut oil and maple syrup with the cocoa powder, salt and lemon zest. Mix in the quinoa, oats, pistachios, raspberries and coconut flakes to combine. Spread the mixture in an even layer across a greased 9-by-13-inch pan, and chill in the fridge until set. Slice, and store.
