Puffed amaranth
Puffed amaranth consists of tiny amaranth grains that have been heated until they pop into small, airy puffs, similar in concept to popcorn but much smaller. It is used as a crunchy topping for desserts and cereals, or as an ingredient in energy bars and granola. Its light, airy texture makes it take up considerable volume relative to its weight.
