    Place quinoa, flax seeds, almonds, and sunflower seeds in a coffee grinder; pulse until finely ground. Add ground quinoa mixture to rice flour mixture; mix well.

    Beat yogurt, brown sugar, eggs, coconut oil, agave nectar, and vanilla together in a large bowl until well combined; stir in rice flour mixture until batter is just blended. Fold in zucchini, carrot, apple, and raisins; divide batter between the prepared muffin cups. Rest batter at room temperature for 30 minutes.

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

    Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into centers comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in the tins for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
