Orange Coconut Muffins
"These are a combination of fresh orange muffins and my own addition of coconut milk and shredded coconut. The flavors go well together, and they are very moist and yummy. They are also whole wheat."

my substitutes: lite coconut milk for coconut milk, sweetened coconut for unsweetened coconut, stevia for sugar<br/><br/>i LOVE coconut so when they got out of the oven i put a little bit of virgin coconut oil on top for a glaze and sprinkled coconut flakes on that<br/><br/>they weren't very sweet (maybe because the stevia) and you couldn't taste the orange. i know that my whole wheat flour tends to be strong tasting in grain and tends to block other flavors -
Very tasty muffin. The orange flavor was very evident, but I will add some coconut extract next time, for more coconut flavor. Not too sweet, which is a good thing! :) -
I used "lite" coconut milk and sweetened coconut(that's what I had in the cupboard)and they tasted good. Not too sweet, which is a plus for me. The use of the blender was convenient as well. Thanks for sharing!
