Double Coconut Muffin
Ingredients
1/2 cup (110 grams) virgin coconut oil
3/4 cup (95 grams) all-purpose flour1/2 cup (60 grams) whole wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon table salt
1 cup (230 grams) full fat Greek-style yogurt, at room temperature is best
1/3 cup (65 grams) granulated sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature is best
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
3/4 cup (90 grams) sweetened shredded coconut, divided
Direction
Preheat oven to 375°F. Either grease 10 muffin cups with butter or coconut oil, or line them with papers.
[Oh, you’re out of paper liners too? Cut parchment paper into 5-inch squares and form them into your empty muffin cups, pressing any creases flat. They won’t stay put until you fill them with batter, and you should make sure you push that batter down so it gets into the corners, but otherwise, they should work as well as the real deal.]
In a small saucepan, warm your coconut oil just until it melts. It should still be on the cool side.
In a medium bowl, whisk together your flours, baking powder and salt. Stir 1/2 cup shredded coconut. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg, sugar, coconut oil, yogurt and vanilla. Stir into dry ingredients until just combined. Divide batter among prepared muffin cups then sprinkle the top with remaining 1/4 cup coconut, about 1 to 2 teaspoons on each.
Bake until a tester inserted into the center comes out batter-free, about 20 minutes. Transfer muffins to a rack and let cool.
Makes 12 muffins.

Cranberry-Apple Spice Muffins (Gluten Free)
Ingredients:
Filling Ingredients
1 cup shredded zucchini (about 1 zucchini)1 1/2 cups finely chopped apples (about 1 large apple)
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon orange zest
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 1/2 cups gluten-free flour (Try 3/4 brown rice flour, 1/4 soy or almond flour and 1/2 cup each of garfava flour, tapioca flour &)
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon clove
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups applesauce
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon molasses
2 teaspoons vanilla
Topping
walnuts (I've also used biscotti crumbs for added crunch or sprinkled extra brown sugar on top )
Directions:
1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease or line two muffin pans (I like to do one regular 12 cup muffin pan and one large 6 cup muffin pan, this also works in a small loaf pan).
2 In a medium sized bowl stir together the filling ingredients.
3 In large bowl, mix together dry ingredients using a wire whisk. Stick your nose in and smell all the spices!
4 In a mixer, beat the eggs, then add the rest of the wet ingredients and mix well. (TIP: To keep the molasses from sticking to your tablespoon, rub a drop of oil in the inside and around the edges and it will slide right off!).
5 Turn mixer on low speed and add the dry mix a little bit at a time, mixing after each addition. Put mixer on medium-high speed and mix for about 15 seconds.
6 Add the filling ingredients and mix on low for about 15 seconds.
7 Spoon the batter into pans, filling halfway since muffins will double in height (I recommend using a rounded ice cream scoop).
8 Place a walnut in the center of each muffin (Sprinkle on brown sugar or crushed biscotti crumbs if you like).
9 Bake for 20-25 minutes. When done, leave in pans at least 5 minutes before eating.
