Spinach amaranth croquette {vegan – sans gluten}

Croquette d'amarante

Me revoilà par ici pour vous donner deux idées de bouchées festives pour le réveillon du nouvel an, car mine de rien ça approche vite, mais avant tout j’espère d’abord que vous avez passé un heureux Noël en compagnie de ceux qui vous sont chers. Je sais pas vous mais pour les fêtes on adore ce mettre en mode « apéritif dinatoire », alors oui ça demande un peu plus de préparation à l’avance mais au moins le jour J on est tranquille et on peut profiter sans passer notre temps en cuisine ! SO, pour accompagner cacahuètes, crisps and olives (yes because admit it we rarely do without this trio) I offer you this recipe for amaranth croquette stuffed with spinach and pine nuts. Croquettes that throw and that are both vegan and gluten free, something to satisfy everyone ! It was the first time we tested amaranth at home and I was really surprised by its nutty taste., it's really really good. Here everyone loved this recipe which was originally an everyday recipe but which has become a perfect festive recipe !

I'll prepare another appetizer bite idea very soon, stick around !

    Hi I love this recipe. Could you give me more details about the amaranth. These are seeds, that's it ? You can find it where ? Thanks in advance 🙂

      Amaranth is a cereal, she is in the rice section, cereals from organic stores 😉

    Bonjour,

    Is it possible to cook these croquettes in the oven?? I am a student, so if I can avoid the frying smell in all the studio, that would be cool 🙂
    Because this recipe makes you want!!
