- Recipe Revision (2023)The original recipe published in 2012. I have updated the recipe to make it even easier, rise a little more, and have a richer flavor. If you'd like to make the original recipe mix together the coconut oil, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup brown sugar with a hand mixer. Reduce the baking powder to 1/4 teaspoon. Bake at 325º F. Follow the rest of the recipe as written.
