Tips:

  • Use fresh limes for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • If you don't have coconut milk, you can use unsweetened almond milk or oat milk. However, the muffins will not be as moist.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full. If you fill them too full, the muffins will overflow.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the toothpick comes out with batter on it, the muffins need to bake longer.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

These Texas Lime in the Coconut Muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. The muffins are moist and flavorful, with a perfect balance of lime and coconut. They are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
