Since my daughter Golda tested positive for celiac disease I have enjoyed experimenting with different “flours”. This recipe calls for quinoa flakes and gluten free oats which both provide a nice amount of protein and fiber. Great way to start your day! We haven’t been missing white flour as all of these new substitutes contain…
