1/2 c Trader Joe’s organic coconut milk in the can (heat in microwave or stove top until melted)

Zest of two lemons and 1 lime *do this before you squeeze the juice out 😁*

Other tools needed:

Makes 12 Muffins


Chef Tips-

* If you prefer muffins sweeter add a 1/2 c of each of sugar and maple syrup instead of 1/4 c each.

*Coconut milk may have natural cream that solidifies. Not to worry...it did not go bad it is only natural!

*Wash skin of lemons and limes very well because they will be zested - even if they are organic!

*You may have to sift or strain lemon juice to make sure no seeds snuck in!


To Start: In separate bowls mix all wet ingredients and all dry ingredients. Once each bowl is fully incorporated, add wet ingredients to dry ingredients.

Ahhh it’s a beautiful marriage!

Once everything is mixed thoroughly, set oven to 350. While you are waiting for the oven to heat, put cupcake cups into baking tray. Fill with batter.

Bake for about 25mins, until lightly golden on top. This is a great time to make your glaze if you haven’t already 😁

Stick a toothpick in..if none of the guts are on the pick...

Perfection! Take muffins out and let cool for about 2hrs.

Top with glaze and an optional edible rice paper poppy!

Serve on your favorite platter!


Enjoy!
