List of Ingredients
1 cup quinoa flour
1 cup arrowroot or tapioca flour
1 teaspoon baking powder (2 tsp.)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup hazelnut or almond butter (sunbutter)
1 teaspoon almond flavoring (vanilla)
1 cup water
1/3 cup oil (safflower)
1/3 cup agave nectar or honey
1/2 cup chopped frozen cherries (optional) didn't use - added about 1/3 c. GFCF choc chips
Recipe
Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Mix all wet ingredients thoroughly in another bowl. Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just until mixed. Drop batter into greased muffin tin. Bake at 350�� for 15-20 minutes. I baked for 14-15 and they were perfect - golden and cooked through.
Makes about 12 muffins.
*Note: Pam lives at 4,000 ft elevation and uses less baking powder and soda than someone at a lower elevation or sea level would need. At those levels perhaps 1 �� tsp of baking powder and 1 teaspoon of baking soda would work better.
