Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a special recipe with you that I conjured up in my kitchen while feeling inspired by the arrival of fall. These Heavenly Quinoa-Pumpkin Poppers are not only delicious but also packed with nutrients to keep you energized throughout the day. Let’s dive into this fun and healthy snack!

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• quinoa (200g)
• pumpkin puree (100g)
• almond flour (50g)
• honey (30ml)
• cinnamon (5g)
• vanilla extract (10ml)
• walnuts (50g, chopped)
• chia seeds (20g)
• coconut oil (20ml)

Gather the following kitchen tools:

• mixing bowl

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a mixing bowl, combine quinoa, pumpkin puree, almond flour, honey, cinnamon, vanilla extract, chopped walnuts, and chia seeds. Mix everything together until well combined.

Using your hands, form the mixture into small, bite-sized balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the tops of the poppers with melted coconut oil.

Bake the Quinoa-Pumpkin Poppers in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and slightly crispy on the outside. Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Once cooled, these poppers are ready to enjoy! They make a perfect snack for any time of day. These Heavenly Quinoa-Pumpkin Poppers have a total weight of around 500g, yielding approximately 10 servings. Each serving weighs approximately 50g and has an estimated calorie count of 150.

One unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top of the poppers before serving for an added burst of flavor and aroma. This simple trick will take your snack to the next level!
