About the Recipe: Start your day off with a moist, nutty-flavored muffin, filled with some fresh berries and a delicious rice-like texture. Quinoa is a superfood that is a healthy addition to the breakfast scene.
Cook’s Note: Be careful not to overcook the quinoa or it will be gummy.
If you prefer, add dried fruits or raisins in place of the fresh berries and spice them up with some cinnamon. I found that putting one or two blueberries in each muffin created a moist but delicious breakfast treat.
