Notes

  • Standard US Size Cups & Spoons used for measurements
  • Quinoa, when cooked, doubles in size so cook it accordingly.
  • One can use spinach, peas, etc to these muffins as well.
  • Brush the tin generously with oil, or else the muffins might stick to the edges.
  • One can add some fresh herbs like rosemary to mask a little egg smell that might come from the muffins.
