  • 1.25 teaspoon baking soda (sifted if lumpy)
  • 1 pinch salt

Wet ingredients

  • ⅓ cup unrefined coconut oil (or unsalted butter), melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 large egg (55 - 60g/2 oz each in shell)

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 220°C/425°F (200°C fan-forced). Spray a muffin tin with canola oil or grease well with butter.
  • Whisk Dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Whisk all the Wet ingredients well in a separate large bowl until smooth. Pour the Dry ingredients into the Wet ingredients, mixing until almost incorporated.
  • Add the chopped mango and coconut, then mix until you no longer see flour. Stop mixing even if there are a few flour lumps.
  • Divide the mixture between muffin holes, slightly mounding them. Sprinkle the top of each with ½ teaspoon of Demerara sugar.
  • Place in the oven. Immediately turn the oven down to 200°C/390°F (180°C fan). Bake for 24 minutes or until golden and a skewer comes out clean.
  • Leave in the muffin tin for 10 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack. Cool for at least another 10 minutes before enjoying.
