The dough

  • 1 cup unbleached all purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat white flour
  • 1 cup quinoa flour
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • ¼ cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut Palm Sugar

  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary (optional)
  • 1 cup plain almond milk, lukewarm (or milk of choice)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a stand mixer, combine the flours, cooked quinoa, uncooked quinoa, coconut palm sugar, instant yeast, rosemary, and sea salt.
  3. Add the milk and olive oil, then beat until the mixture comes together.
  4. Switch to the dough hook and mix for 5 minutes until the dough is smooth, adding flour a tablespoon at a time if it is too sticky.
  5. Shape the dough into a log and cover it with a lightly dampened towel. Let it sit for 15 minutes.
  6. Divide the dough into 8 pieces and form them into balls, then flatten into disks and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Let the buns rise for 20 minutes, placing them close together for softer buns.
  8. Brush the tops of the buns with almond milk and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  9. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown, then let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a cooling rack.
