Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tbsp butter
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp lime juice
1 cup non fat vanilla yogurt (use greek if you have it)
2 eggs
2 tbsp vanilla extract (if you only have the good stuff, reduce to 2 tsp and add milk to make 2 tbsp
3/4 cup flour
2 cups Bisquick
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
3 tbsp reserved pineapple marinade
1 1/2 cup chopped grilled pineapple (1/2 cup for topping)
2 cups toasted coconut (1 cup for topping)
1/4 cup brown sugar

Steps:

  • Marinade for pineapple To prepare marinade, melt butter over medium heat until golden brown. Stir in honey and lime juice. Set aside to cool slightly. Place sliced pineapple into gallon sized ziplock bag and pour marinade over top. Make sure all slices are well coated. Refrigerate at least 30 min, overnight or 24 hours is best.Grill 3-4 minutes per side. Toast 2 cups coconut in a fry pan over medium heat until golden brown. Set aside to cool. Beat eggs, yogurt, brown sugar and vanilla in Kitchenaid until smooth. Add dry ingredients and mix until smooth. Fold in pineapple and coconut. To prepare topping, combine reserved pineapple, coconut and brown sugard over low heat until brown sugar is melted. Set aside to cool slightly. Prepare muffin pans, lightly grease or use liners, and fill tins 2/3 full. Place a tsp or so of topping on each muffin. Bake at 425 degrees 10-18 min until golden brown and cake tester comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, shredded coconut: Fresh coconut adds a more intense flavor and texture to the muffins than dried coconut.
  • Toast the coconut before using it: Toasting the coconut brings out its natural flavor and makes it more fragrant.
  • Use buttermilk instead of regular milk: Buttermilk makes the muffins more tender and moist.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full: This will prevent the muffins from overflowing in the oven.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through.

Conclusion:

Toasted coconut muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. With their moist and tender crumb, sweet and nutty flavor, and crunchy coconut topping, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
