Pineapple Coconut Muffins

If you're in the mood for a mouthful of flavor, try this one.  Pineapple, coconut, nuts, coconut milk....I find Coconut Milk in the Oriental food section in the grocery stores where I live.  You can use the milk of your choice, of course, but the flavor will not be as rich and rewarding.


Pineapple Coconut Muffins

2 eggs
1/3 cup Extra Light Olive Oil
3/4 cup Coconut milk
1 8-oz can crushed pineapple, with juice
1/2 cup flaked coconut (sweetened or unsweetened)
1/2 cup macadamia nuts, chopped
2 3/4 cups muffin mix (see side bar for this)

Spray or grease a 12-cup muffin pan.
Oven temp. set for 400 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl, mix the wet ingredients.  Add coconut and nuts, mixing well. Add muffin mix, stirring until just moistened.  Pour batter into the muffin pan and bake for about 16-18 minutes, or until golden brown, depending on your oven.  Remove from pan and cool on wire rack.
