Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1 tablespoon Orange zest
- 0.5 cups Fresh orange juice
- 0.25 cups Coconut oil (melted)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini muffin tin or line with mini muffin liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar, and shredded coconut until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the orange zest, orange juice, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each muffin cup about three-quarters of the way full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the cooled muffins with powdered sugar before serving.
Serve the Coconut Orange Mini Tea Muffins as a delightful addition to your tea time or as a sweet snack!
