Final notes:
1- These muffins are on the sweet side as compared to the other muffins I made, because of the dates. they had crunchiness because of the Quinoa yet they also felt soft and tasted delicious with the coffee and a bit of Almond butter.
2- Since I started eating these healthy muffins, my taste for white breads and buns has diminished quite a lot.
3- These muffins are full of iron and protein and not so much fat.
