Coconut-Orange Mini Tea Muffins - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 oranges, zest of
1/2 cup orange juice
2 eggs
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut (plus more for topping)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
Grease 24 mini-muffin cups (however, my non-stick baking pan doesn't require greasing -- ) In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine melted butter, orange peel, orange juice and eggs until well blended.
Add coconut, then stir into flour mixture until just combined.
Do not overmix.
Spoon into muffin cups and sprinkle a little extra coconut on the tops of each muffin.
Bake approximately 15 minutes, or until lightly golden around the edges.
Or, if you wish to make standard-size muffins, bake at 375\u00b0F for approximately 22 to 25 minutes.
