Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Shredded unsweetened coconut
• 0.5 cups Sliced almonds
• 2 units Large eggs
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 0.75 cups Coconut milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoons Almond extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with nonstick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the granulated sugar, shredded coconut, and sliced almonds until evenly combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs. Whisk in the melted butter, coconut milk, vanilla extract, and almond extract until the mixture is smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently fold together using a spatula until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Evenly distribute the batter into the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 6

Optional: Sprinkle a few extra sliced almonds and shredded coconut on top of each muffin for added texture and presentation.

Step 7

Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
