We love the crunch a quinoa crust adds to quiches and other savory dishes, so we sweetened it up a bit to use as a canvas for desserts. 

Ingredients
1 cup rinsed, uncooked quinoa
1/2 cup almond meal
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large egg, lightly beaten

Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 350°

2. Place quinoa on a jelly-roll pan. Bake at 350°for 10 minutes or until golden brown; cool. 

3. Place half of quinoa in a food processor; pulse 30 seconds. 

4. Transfer to a large bowl. Add remaining toasted quinoa, almond meal, cornstarch, and 3/4 teaspoon salt; stir to combine. Add 1 tablespoon oil and egg; stir until mixture is crumbly but holds together when pressed. 

5. Press into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 5 minutes.
