Equipment

  • muffin tin
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Rubber Spatula
  • stick blender or food processor

Ingredients
  

Dry ingredients

  • 2 ¼ cups plain flour (all-purpose flour)
  • 1 ¼ teaspoon baking soda (bi-carbonate soda) sifted if lumpy
  • 1 pinch salt

Wet ingredients

  • ⅓ cup unrefined coconut oil or unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 large egg (55 - 60g/2 oz each in shell)
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • ¾ cup white sugar can reduce to ½ cup but no less
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mango puréed mango (260g, room temp)

Add-ins

  • 2 cups chopped mango small, 8mm to 1 cm max, room temp
  • ½ cup desiccated coconut unsweetened, finely shredded

Crunchy topping

  • 2 tablespoon demerara sugar

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 220°C/425°F (200°C fan-forced). Spray a muffin tin with canola oil or grease well with butter.
  • Whisk dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Whisk all wet ingredients well in a separate large bowl until smooth. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Use a rubber spatula to mix together until the flour is almost incorporated.
  • Add the chopped mango and coconut, then mix until you no longer see flour. Stop mixing, even if there are a few flour lumps.
  • Divide mixture between muffin holes, slightly mounded. Sprinkle the top of each with ½ teaspoon of demerara sugar.
  • Place in the oven, turn down to 200°C/390°F (180°C fan). Bake for 24 minutes or until golden and a skewer comes out clean.
  • Leave in the muffin tin for 10 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack. Cool for at least another 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Muffins will stay fresh and moist for 4 days. If hot and humid, keep in the fridge. They can also be frozen for 3 months.
