Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F
  2. In a medium saucepan, bring quinoa and 1 cup water to a boil.
  3. Reduce to a simmer; cover, and cook until water has been absorbed and quinoa is tender, 11 to 13 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, brush a standard 12-cup muffin pan with oil; dust with flour, tapping out excess.

  9. Cool muffins in pan, 5 minutes; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
