Lemon coconut muffins baked in mini muffin form make for a delicious mini muffin recipe.  Coconut and lemon combine to produce a moist and tasty mini muffin.

There is something about a mini muffin that appeals to the inner child in me, as well as controlling anything sweet in the house, despite it being low carb.  When you are having an urge for a sweet treat, a mini muffin can hit that spot without you ending up face down in an empty plate where a whole cheesecake once was.  Or what I call Sunday evening!

We were in the mood for lemon coconut muffins but as I had recently purchased a mini muffin silicone tray I wanted to try baking with it.  So, we had mini muffins instead of large ones. A few years ago, I purchased a large silicone cake tin and was not too happy with its results.  The cake did not exactly slide of the silicone so I went back to my trusty regular tins.   One of the local stores had a display of silicon moulds so I thought that I would try a smaller mould this time.   I was delighted on how smoothly the mini muffins popped out of their moulds and will be using this tin again.  Expect a few more mini muffin recipes!

The lemon coconut muffins are light and moist.  The flavour combination is perfect for a summers day or a mid-afternoon pick me up.   The beauty of this recipe, as well as the taste, is how easy it is to make.  You could whip up a batch of these lemon coconut muffins in no time at all.   If you don’t have a mini muffin tin, then use a regular tin but you will probably need to bake the muffins for an extra 5 minutes.

    Wow, these were fantastic and a crowd pleasure at a dinner party, I made them with coconut oil in place of the butter for my friend who is dairy free, worked out great. Thank you Angela for a great recipe. 🙂
