Quinoa Blueberry Bites

Quinoa Blueberry Muffins

These little bites are essentially a muffin. As they are gluten-free, dairy-free and contain cooked quinoa and rice flour, they don't rise as much as the muffins that are typically baked in my kitchen. But that's not a bad thing. They certainly are packed full of goodness and natural sweetness. And moist. Enjoy them shortly after they come out of the oven for that melt-in-your-mouth experience, when the blueberries are still warm. The applesauce also makes a bolder flavor when they are fresh.
