Do you have any favorite chocolate bars? There are so many different ones out there but for me the ones with a lot of coconut aka. Bountys do the trick. I love them. The chewy coconut filling and the crunchy chocolate around… so good! As a little homage to those chocolate bars, I made super delicious muffins that actually taste pretty much the same ;) Coconut Chocolate Muffins are the best! Oh yes!
I really had to hold myself back from eating more than one of the muffins then they got out of the oven. They smelled so good and yes they also tasted delicious! Some of you might know that I have some problems with white sugar right now, so I decided to skip that in this recipe and use coconut blossom sugar instead. Sounded good for a coconut muffin ;)
Instead of regular all-purpose flour, I also used flours that are better for your blood sugar levels: spelt flour and wholemeal wheat flour. These types of flour are bit easier to digest and do not raise the blood sugar too much at once as white flour or sugar would do. That’s not only better for people with diabetes but also for everyone else since that is kind of preventing the body from signaling you to much more right away. Peaks and especially lows make you feel hungry and that can be avoided. At least a bit. But do not hold back, if you want to eat more than one muffin. Eat as much as you want and as much as is good for you ;)
The muffins area really packed with coconut flavors – from the coconut flakes, coconut blossom sugar, coconut oil… it would have been hard to add more ;) The muffins get a really nice texture because of that and are delicious and moist. In combination with the chocolate pieces just plain old awesome :P
INGREDIENTS / ZUTATEN
3/4 cup (100g) spelt flour
1/2 cup (60g) whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
pinch of salt
1/2 cup (40g) shredded coconut
1/4 cup (30g) coconut blossom sugar
1 large egg
1 cup (240g) Alpro Natur Coconut (or coconut yogurt)
1/2 cup (100g) coconut oil, melted
1/2 cup (100g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
2-3 tbsp. coconut flakes
100g Dinkelmehl (Type 630)
60g Weizenvollkornmehl
1 1/2 TL Backpulver
Prise Salz
40g Kokosraspel
30g Kokosblütenzucker
1 Ei (L)
240g Alpro Natur Kokos (oder Joghurt)
100g Kokosöl, geschmolzen
100g Schokoladendrops (zartbitter)
2-3 EL Kokosflocken (Kokos-Chips)
DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG
2. Mix the flours with the baking powder, salt, and shredded coconut in a small bowl until well combined. Set aside.
3. Melt the coconut oil – it should be liquid but not warm. Add the coconut blossom sugar and egg to a large bowl and whisk until well combined. Add Alpro Coconut, and coconut oil and mix until well combined. Add the flour mixture and mix until just combined. Add the chocolate chips and fold in. Divide the batter between the paper liners and bake for 20-22 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Take out of the oven and let cool down on a wire rack.
2. Das Kokosöl schmelzen – es sollte nur flüssig werden, nicht warm. Die beiden Mehlsorten, Backpulver, Salz und Kokosraspel in einer kleinen Schüssel vermischen. Den Kokosblütenzucker mit dem Ei in einer großen Schüssel verrühren, dann Alpro Natur Kokos (oder Joghurt) und das geschmolzene Kokosöl dazugeben und alles gut verrühren. Die Mehlmischung zur Schüssel dazugeben und nur kurz verrühren. Die Schokodrops unterheben und dann den Teig auf die Papierförmchen verteilen und für 20-22 Minuten backen. Mit einem Holzspieß testen, ob noch Teig kleben bleibt und die Muffins erst herausholen, wenn der Spieß sauber herauskommt. Die Muffins aus dem Ofen holen und auf einem Kuchengitter abkühlen lassen.

I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
