- Reduce heat, cover, and simmer over medium heat for fifteen minutes, until most of the liquid is absorbed.
- While the quinoa is cooking, roast the pecans in a dry skillet for three minutes on medium heat or in a toaster oven at 350 degrees F for about five or six minutes.
- Remove quinoa from heat and let stand covered for five minutes.
- Stir in cinnamon and blackberries, then transfer to four bowls and top with roasted pecans. Drizzle one teaspoon of agave nectar, honey, or maple syrup over each serving.
