High-Protein Quinoa Olive Bread
By Bailey1_
Slices and freezes perfectly. To freeze, place parchment paper between the slices, so you can pull out one slice at a time. I used white chia seeds, however black chia seeds are just as good, and they’ll make the bread a dark color.
When it is soaked or sprouted, it becomes even more nutritious and easy to digest.

Ingredients
- 3 large eggs at room temperature
- 1 cup quinoa seeds, soaked 8 - 12 hours and very well drained
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds, finely ground (This will be 4 tablespoons after grinding)
- 2 teaspoons unfiltered apple cider vinegar
- 3 tablespoons olive or coconut oil
- 1/2 teaspoon unprocessed salt
- 2 tablespoons sweetener such as Just Like Sugar Table Top natural chicory root sweetener, or 1 teaspoon PureLo Lo Han Sweetener by Swanson, or 1 1/2 tablespoons raw honey, or your favorite sweetener. (optional)
- 3/4 cup almond meal or flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 cup hemp nuts (hemp hearts)
- 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1/2 cup black olives, coarsely chopped
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350º F. Cover a 9 x 5 loaf pan with parchment paper so it hangs over the sides like handles. I secure it with photo clips.
In a blender, add the eggs and soaked quinoa, very well drained. Blend for 1-2 minutes until it is as liquified as possible.
To the blender, add chia seeds, vinegar, oil, salt, and sweetener. Blend well.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond meal and baking soda. Then stir in the hemp nuts, pumpkin seeds, and olives.
Add the blended wet ingredients to the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stir very briefly. It will be the consistency of cooked oatmeal. Put into the pan quickly (the rising action has started) and bake 38 to 45 minutes.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a rack 30 minutes. Refrigerate for easier slicing. Enjoy!

Jane, I bought your Paleo Desserts book and haven’t been sorry! Every recipe I make has been outstanding, and my friends can’t believe how delicious and guilt-free this food is. My favorites are the chocolate chip cookies and the lemon pie/tart. Thank you so much for giving me and the world a great alternative to satisfy that need for sweetness with no worries of weight gain or sugar highs and lows. I don’t know how you did it, but thank you for your expertise.” Leslie Ann
