Dear Rachel, I just took my very first pan of Aussie Bites out of the oven. They look exactly like the ones you made. I'm waiting for them to cool to eat a couple. You do a marvelous job with your videos and recipes. I've used many of your recipes and every one of them is a "make again" recipe. Thanks for sharing your expertise. Stay safe.

[@JBlanco66]

Tonight is the third time in a week that I make these awesome bites. They’re a good seller. On a note, in the video you said 1/4 cup of baking soda, then I read the recipe and it’s 1/4 tsp.

[@JBlanco66]

Thank you!!! 😊

[@monanasrallah]

If I wouldn't have known better what a mistake I'd have made lol

[@JBlanco66]

@@monanasrallah still selling them, they're a hit!

[@jesseschwartz4574]

Your written recipe calls for 1/4 tsp baking soda, but in the video you accidentally state 1/4 cup baking soda. Clearly the amount you show being placed in your recipe is the 1/4 tsp, however if someone isn't paying close attention to what is happening - that could be a NASTY result. Obviously others have noted the Oops! Because this is a wonderful recipe, as others have stated. Just wanted to save someone from having a bad batch!

[@Jenny-hj3gt]

You are so nice to point it out, 👍👍

[@mrpeters2955]

Thank you so much for this great recipe! I just made them and they're simply delicious!!!!

[@karene9131]

I made these with dried cranberries and apricots instead of raisins...I think the chia seeds should maybe be soaked first...seemed to hard to bite on! Awesome recipe though, I’m going to tweek it a bit!😁

[@williambond6299]

Was not trying to be derogatory. Just wanted to make sure I followed your recipe. Plan to make it very soon.

[@williambond6299]

The text in your description states cooked quinoa but you say uncooked. It also appears your are putting in uncooked.

[@evangelinestars5475]

Hi just asking the same question from Others about the cooked vs uncooked quinoa. I didn’t see an answer yet. Can you clarify which it is? Video says uncooked and the description says cooked. Also would the recipe still work if I omit the sugar?

[@CollectingPlastic]

Made these and they came out perfect! Thank you for this video

[@SnehaDoshisingh]

Tried this.. these were actually close to the ones we get outside.. however mine turned out a little dark, so next time ill probably bake them for 8mins.. i toasted quinoa and still it turned out gr8... thx

[@Thestayathomechef]

You are welcome! Glad to hear your tried it

[@virginiacazares9883]

I’m sorry but I was so confused! I made a pot of quinoa cause your recipe ingredient list calls for “cooked” quinoa but in your video we used uncooked quinoa. I didn’t even notice I didn’t use any of the cooked insta pot until after I put the aussie bites in to bake. Can’t wait for them to be done here soon!

[@PurpleBox89]

These look amazing!!! Though they have a bunch of ingredients I don't have regularly...but I suppose it's an excuse to find more recipes that use them!

[@nehasharma4969]

My friend followed your recipe & it came out super yummy 😋..me too will try

[@Thestayathomechef]

Hope you enjoy

[@Volixen]

In the written recipe it says we can use 1/4 cup cooked quinoa. Does that mean measure 1/4 cup of it *after* it's been cooked (which is fluffier and weighs less)?

[@gosalianj]

Hi there, I tried a few without baking soda as I didn't had it and when I added I heard you saying quarter cup and not teaspoon which I followed and it tastes really bad now. In your discription box it says quarter tea spoon which I checked after. Sorry I am not a baking person so didn't had the idea.

[@nickichmil8955]

Thanks so much for the recipe. I have a store bought package in the house right now, so I'm going to give my husband a blind taste test!

[@tweetylau5988]

Please let me know how this recipe turned out. I am the same, we went through one and a half pack from Costco and I bought all the ingredients to make these. Maybe today.

[@FitFoodieNutritionist]

I was looking for a recipe that would be the closest to the bites i bought from Costco, and this one is! unfortunately it is using Canola oil just like the store bought one(which is the reason i am trying to bake my own instead)...so I am gonna replace the Canola oil with olive oil and white sugar with coconut sugar and it would be perfect..Thanks for the recipe :)

[@Thestayathomechef]

Sounds like that could be tasty! let me know how it works for you (:

[@FitFoodieNutritionist]

I'm planning to make these tonight when i come back from work(seems fast and easy enough to do after work), and just have one question i hope i get the answer before started making them...in the video you say uncooked Quinoa and they actually look like uncooked quinoa but in the discretion it says Cooked Quinoa!!So which one is correct?(I'm so hoping the uncooked one is correct :D) and if it's cooked how do you cook it?just with water or toast it in the pan or the oven??Thank you so much in advance:)

[@4mommynme]

Yes! You are my hero👍🏽 I'm trying this tonight! Thanks!

[@prernavij8364]

I baked them and they were tasty 😋

[@joanneyoung1081]

I’m going to try this recipe. Thanks

[@tamishaw6994]

I have a large bullet chopper, mixer blender will that work for making Aussie Bites?

[@TheBR1987]

Looks great I'll try it

[@QueenAmethyst55]

Ooh thanks so much for this. Out of interest have you done an approximate costing in comparison to the Aussie bites. I imagine the outlay is quite expensive at first? Either way many thanks for your time and straightforward video. 👍👍👍

[@Thestayathomechef]

That would depend on where you shop and where you live. I’m able to shop at places with bulk bins where I can buy exactly the amounts I need for the recipe which makes them significantly cheaper.

[@Alif.Laam.Meem.]

Please, please pretty please, is it cooked or uncooked quinoa ? Thanks a million :0)

[@TheCheeze01]

I used uncooked

[@Alif.Laam.Meem.]

@@TheCheeze01 Thank you, I went ahead and tried uncooked. It turned out pretty good. Thanks again

[@TheCheeze01]

I am wondering I just made mine and everytime i make them they sink in the middle did this happen to yours to ?

[@Alif.Laam.Meem.]

@@TheCheeze01 No, mine didn't sink in. But I think because I packed them and pushed down on each to mold into shape. Next time I plan to lightly pack each of them, substitute raisin for cranberries and reduce cook time a couple of minutes. Still trying to get them soft like the Costco brand lol.

[@TheCheeze01]

@@Alif.Laam.Meem. oh okay thanks and goodluck !!!

[@joemanoh]

Cooked these as instructed, and realized the ingredients call for quarter teaspoon of baking soda. In the video, it says quarter cup of baking soda. They came out very huge and undercooked. Might need to make a note of that for people making it at home.

[@chrispinnock975]

Note if you are listening vs reading the ingredients she made a mistake with the baking soda. It should be 1/4tsp vs 1/4cup :)...

[@michaelkiser8017]

I make them with no sugar and coconut oil instead of canola

[@joycedeeb2756]

Yes, I've made the same as you. Definitely a keeper!

[@barbra429]

Any suggestions on how to make these healthy with the less carbs and sugar

[@barbra429]

That would be great

[@dimmyinthecity]

Truvia

[@trange3770]

I have the same trouble with the volume. I wonder do you suggest freezing the bites?

[@theseomama]

Thank you for sharing. Has someone tried freezing them? Interested to know if I could make these in batches and freeze them. TIa.

[@Thestayathomechef]

you can freeze them. They will be good for about a month in the freezer.

[@theseomama]

The Stay At Home Chef awesome! thank you. :)

[@dianenelson1764]

I freeze the ones I buy at the store, and eat them frozen....I love them frozen

[@joycedeeb2756]

Yes I've have tried that turn out great.

[@shidaladani7385]

I will definitely try these. The volume is always so low, I have to go max volume and I still can't hear it good.

[@sammyrheerhee3582]

The Stay At Home Chef ...volume is very low for true... I have to use head phones to hear u properly. Love ur chocolate cake, I'm going to make it for my son's birthday ☺

[@zahidbajwa2561]

Baking soda: a quarter cup? Or quarter teaspoon? Quarter tablespoons? Kindly clarify?

[@ciew6197]

1/4 tsp baking soda

[@estenaidagarcia5508]

Is it cooked or uncooked Quinoa?

[@vidyasonavane9602]

Is it cooked quinoa or uncooked? In description it’s cooked but u say uncooked during demonstration. Also never use honey if u t going to heat it up.

[@TheCheeze01]

Mine puffed up when I put them in the oven and seemed very not cooked in the middle , I still have to wait for them to settle but they don’t look like the videos and I followed all the steps

[@TheCheeze01]

Make sure u put the right amount of baking powered

[@_Majoras]

they taste like a muffin blended with granola? sign me up :D

[@magie1980]

Did she say 1/4 cup of baking soda? That seems a bit much.

[@christine_rae]

Would a Ninja blender work to make these instead of a food processor?

[@kayrock6772]

i think most likely better blending i bake and use both machines often both have there purposes

[@Shiraz321]

volume is low and it's hard to hear what you are saying.

[@mariawilkerson1237]

Try turning up the volume on your computer keyboard, not on the bottom of the video

[@snackymcgoo1539]

Video states “quarter cup” of baking soda. Didn’t look like quarter cup.

[@Thestayathomechef]

THe recipe is also in the video description (: It is 1/4 tsp baking soda

[@reginap8139]

1/4 cup baking powder, ruined the recipe and the bottom of my oven😩😩😩

[@ajpatino1]

So do these taste healthy? They look like they taste healthy if you know what I mean... haha

[@ajpatino1]

The Stay At Home Chef I'll have to try them! 👍🏻

[@sharondavisson4149]

Granola oil is horrible for you

[@carram3435]

Started off good but recipe was ruined when white sugar added. 🤦

[@Thestayathomechef]

It’s a copycat recipe so I stuck with ingredients that the commercial product uses, which included white sugar.

[@DavidRamónBazánMoncayoPediatra]

It's the same recepie I've seen in other video. You've not got the best recepie... Sorry!🙄

[@Thestayathomechef]

Clearly I didn't invent this recipe as I was trying to make a copycat of a packaged product. Fun fact: because I've been publishing recipes online since 2008, people re-publish them all the time. When I originally published this recipe, the only recipes available online didn't include the same ingredients as were listed on the package.

[@Thestayathomechef]

Recipe first published January 5, 2015. There isn't even a KZbin video for Aussie Bites older than that :) Interesting how many people use my recipes, huh? A good majority of cooking channels on KZbin just make recipes off the internet. I prefer to develop my own.
