Rinse the quinoa under cold running water in a fine-mesh strainer. Transfer to a large bowl and cover with water. Use enough water to submerge the quinoa completely. Allow the quinoa to soak for at least 3 hours.
Drain and rinse again under cold water in a fine-mesh strainer to remove any remaining residue.
Drain and add to a high-speed blende along with water, chia seeds, and optional seasoning(s). Blend until smooth. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes or so.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spray with a small amount of olive oil or avocado oil. Pour about ½ cup of the quinoa batter into the pan. Quickly, using a spoon or the bottom of a measuring cup, spread the batter as thin as you can in a circular motion without breaking it. Do not spread using the tilt method. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
