2. 2

   Blend the dried quinoa and chia seeds until they form a flour.

3. 3

   Add the salt, garlic powder, and baking powder to the flour and mix.

4. 4

   Add the egg, plain yogurt or plant-based cream, and apple cider vinegar. Mix until a dough forms.

6. 6

   Bake for 15 minutes in an air fryer or in an oven preheated to 180 °C.
