👩‍🍳 How to Make Coconut Flour Muffins

  1. Preheat Oven: Set oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk eggs, melted coconut oil, syrup, vanilla, and non-dairy milk until smooth.

🥥 Tips for Baking with Coconut Flour

  • Coconut flour absorbs a lot of liquid, so don’t substitute it 1:1 with other flours.
  • Let the batter sit for 5 minutes before scooping to allow it to thicken.
  • Store muffins in an airtight container for up to 4 days, or freeze for later.

🍫 Flavor Variations

  • Banana Coconut Muffins – Add ½ mashed banana
  • Lemon Poppy Seed – Add 1 tbsp lemon juice + 1 tsp zest + 1 tbsp poppy seeds
  • Chocolate Muffins – Add 2 tbsp cocoa powder + dark chocolate chunks
