- Spray loaf pans and divide batter between 4 mini loaf pans

Notes
Use cooked and cooled quinoa - you need one cup of already cooked quinoa for the bread.
I used four mini loaf pans. If using large pans increase baking time by 5-10 minutes.
Cut each mini loaf into 8 slices.
Test for doneness with a toothpick inserted into the middle of a loaf. If toothpick comes out clean, the bread is done.
