Chocolate Cherry Coconut Scuffins - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 cups all-purpose flour
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup coconut oil, at room temperature
    1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
    1/2 cup white sugar
    1/2 cup turbinado (raw) sugar
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    2 eggs
    1 cup plain fat-free Greek yogurt
    1 teaspoon almond extract
    1 1/2 cups dried cherries, roughly chopped
    3/4 cup sweetened shredded coconut
    1/2 cup milk chocolate chips, roughly chopped
    Glaze Topping:
    3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
    1 1/2 tablespoons cherry jam
    1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream, or more as needed
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 24-cup mini muffin tins or line cups with paper liners.
    Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
    Combine coconut oil, butter, white sugar, turbinado sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer on high speed until well combined, about 4 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add yogurt and almond extract and beat on medium-low to incorporate. Mix in flour mixture on the lowest speed until batter is just combined.
    Fold cherries, coconut, and milk chocolate chips into the batter. Fill muffin tins 3/4-full of batter using a small scoop.
    Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 10 to 15 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
    Combine confectioners' sugar, cherry jam, and heavy cream in a small bowl; mix with a spoon until no lumps of confectioners' sugar are visible and glaze is smooth. Thin with more cream if needed. Drizzle over scuffins.
