Quinoa flour has a very neutral flavor, making it easy to add additions like blueberries, bananas and chocolate chips. However, quinoa flour pancakes are a different texture than regular pancakes. There is a fine grain to the flour that you can notice when eating them. I don't find this bothersome, nor does my husband. Especially since we know how much more nutritious these are. Once you add your toppings it's much less noticeable.
