Ingredients

• 1 cup quinoa flour
• 1 cup water
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the chia seeds with 2 tablespoons of water and let sit for 5 minutes to create a chia gel.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, add the quinoa flour, olive oil, and the prepared chia gel.

Step 4

Gently mix in the remaining water while stirring until you form a smooth batter.

Step 5

Stir in the nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper until all ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 6

Spread the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, using a spatula to smooth it out evenly to about 1/8-inch thickness.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then carefully remove it to score the partially baked batter into desired chip shapes with a sharp knife or pizza cutter.

Step 8

Rotate the baking sheet, return it to the oven, and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the edges are golden and chips are crispy.

Step 9

Allow the chips to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before breaking them apart along the scored lines.

Step 10

Serve the quinoa chips immediately or store them in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
