  1. These are very good. The Zaar muffins sure beat the bought ones!! I used walnuts and peanuts as I had no almonds and it did not seem to make any difference. Thanks ChrisMc.
     
  2. Made these for supper tonight, I didn't have any coconut milk, so improvised with buttermilk and a couple of drops of coconut essence. They were a really nice blend of flavours, subtle but not too sweet. Will have to make some and take into work. Thanks for the recipe.
     
  3. Looking for a muffin recipe to use up some left over coconut milk I came across this one. I hope you don't mind that I converted so much, but they came out great :) I used 1 cup of gluten free all purpose flour plus 1 tablespoon psyllium husks and 1/2 cup coconut flour. Instead of sugar I used some rice syrup and stevia, and virgin coconut oil instead of butter, and increased the coconut milk to one whole cup as the coconut flour is defatted and thus quite dry. Also I used unsweetened coconut chips. The muffins are wonderfully moist, just perfectly sweet and have a lovely coconut flavour. Thanks for posting!
     
  4. Great muffins if you're a coconut lover, very fluffy and jam-packed with coconut flavor!
     
  5. Yum, yum, yum! These muffins were divine! I used light butter to cut down on calories, and 2 tbsps cornstarch dissolved in water to replace the eggs, and what resulted was a DELICIOUS, moist, lower calorie, coconutty muffin! Apparently, I wasn't the only one who thought that! My friends helped the muffins disappear in 2 days! Thanks!
