Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup whole-wheat flour
1/2 cup quinoa flour (You can make your own quinoa flour just by grinding quinoa, about 1/4 cup at a time, in a spice mill. Once ground, sift the flour, and then grind any whole quinoa that stays behind in the sifter.)
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 large or extra large eggs
1/4 cup maple syrup
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup canola oil
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup cooked quinoa
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 cup blueberries

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees with a rack in the middle. Oil 12 muffin cups. Sift together whole-wheat flour, quinoa flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, maple syrup or agave nectar, buttermilk, canola oil and vanilla. Quickly whisk in the flour mixture, then fold in the cooked quinoa, pecans and blueberries. Combine well. Spoon into muffin cups, filling each two-thirds full. Bake 20 to 25 minutes until lightly browned. Cool in the tins for 10 minutes, then remove from the mold and cool on a rack.
