Method
Preheat oven to 180 C. Put all ingredients into a blender, apart from cooked quinoa. Pulse until a coarse paste and mix in the quinoa. Divide mixture into 5 equal balls, and form each into a patty between ¼ and ½ inch thick.
In a medium oven-safe saucepan over high heat, cook patties in ½ tablespoon coconut oil for 1 minute on each side, or until lightly browned.
Transfer the saucepan to the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Serve patties in pita breads or over fresh greens with desired toppings.
