INGREDIENTS
125 g sunflower seeds, toasted and ground*
125 g ground almond mealÂ
2 t baking powder
3 T Psyllium husks

1 t yeast
225ml boiling water
3 T cider vinegar
3 T miso paste
1 T coconut oil
2 whole eggs + 2 egg whites, lightly beaten

*To toast the sunflower seeds, toast them in a dry pan till golden brown then pulse between 4 – 6 times in a nutribullet until the seeds resemble flour. Do not over pulse or you’ll end up with sunflower butter!Â
METHOD
Mix the dried ingredients in a medium-sized bowl.Â
In a measuring cup, pour the boiling water over the combined vinegar, miso and coconut oil and stir to mix.Â
Stir the wet mix into the dry ingredients and leave to sit for 15 minutes.Â
Prepare your Old Dutch lid or Legacy Pan by lightly oiling and sprinkling with sesame seeds.Â
Heat oven to 160°C.
Add the eggs to the cooled mix and lightly beat until well combined.Â
Using two large spoons, drop 10 quenelles or spoonfuls of the mix into your prepared Old Dutch lid or Legacy Pan. Top with extra sesame seeds and bake for 40 mins or until golden brown and smelling incredible!
Enjoy.
