Coconut Pineapple Muffins

This recipe was super easy and super delicious, i had changed some of the quantities to suit my taste. The result? Bouncy, moist and really yummy muffins.

2 cups flour, sifted with 1 tablespoon baking powder
½ cup desiccated coconut - added a little more 3/4 cup
½ cup caster sugar - i used 3/4 cup
1 egg
¼ cup melted butter - I used 1/2 cup
1/3 cup milk (or use the drained juice from the crushed pineapple) - i used 2/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1x225 gram can crushed pineapple,drained
½ cup slivered almonds

In a large bowl add the flour, coconut and sugar. Stir to mix.

In a small bowl, place the egg, butter milk (or pineapple juice) and vanilla - whisk lightly to incorporate, then stir in the drained crushed pineapple.

Stir this into the dry ingredients until only just combined.

Spoon the batter into prepared muffin pans and sprinkle over with slivered almonds.

Cook in a preheated 180°C oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
