Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line 18 muffin-pan cups with paper liners.
-
Step 2.
In a large bowl, whisk together 1¼ cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup whole-wheat flour, ⅓ cup raw white quinoa, 1½ teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
-
Step 3.
In a medium bowl, whisk 2 large beaten eggs, 1 cup plain full-fat yogurt, ½ cup melted butter, and ½ cup honey until smooth. Fold the egg mixture into the flour mixture until just combined (do not overmix), then gently stir in the chopped plum.
-
Step 4.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, using about ¼ cup per cup. Top each muffin with a couple of slices from the thinly sliced plum.
-
Step 5.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Let the muffins cool in the pans for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Step 6.
If desired, drizzle the cooled muffins with honey before serving.
