Blueberry Coconut Muffins
Blueberry Coconut Muffins blend white whole wheat flour with shredded coconut and fresh or frozen blueberries for a moist, fragrant muffin. Coconut oil and coconut milk add richness and a subtle coconut flavor, while the vanilla enhances sweetness. The batter yields muffins with a tender crumb and pockets of juicy blueberries and chewy coconut.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 cup coconut oil melted and cooled to room temperature
- 1 egg or flaxseed replacement, see note, large
- 3/4 cup coconut milk lite
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup coconut sweetened shredded
- 1 cup blueberries fresh or frozen
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease muffin pan or line pan with muffin liners. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
- In a separate medium bowl, mix coconut oil, egg, coconut milk, and vanilla together.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula. Stir until just combined. The batter will be thick. Gently fold in the coconut and blueberries.
- Divide batter among prepared muffin cups. Bake muffins for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Transfer muffins to a cooling rack and cool.
- Note-you can make this recipe vegan by replacing the egg with 1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds and 3 tablespoons water. Stir together until thick and add to coconut oil, coconut milk, and vanilla.
