Ingredients

100g coconut oil

150g self-raising flour

150g wholemeal self-raising flour

100g Grower’s Selection Coconut Chunks

2tsp ground cinnamon

75g light brown soft sugar

1 small apple, grated

2 medium eggs, lightly beaten

150ml buttermilk (or mix 125ml Greek yogurt with 25ml full-fat milk)

75g granola

Strawberries, to serve

Method

1
Preheat the oven to 180C/ 160C Fan/Gas 4. Fill the holes of a muffin tray with paper cases. Melt the coconut oil and reserve 2tbsp.
2
For the muffin mix, sift the flours into a mixing bowl, also tipping in the bran collected in the sieve. Finely chop 75g of the coconut. Add to the bowl with the cinnamon, sugar and apple, and mix.
3
Make a well in the centre and add the coconut oil, eggs and buttermilk. Gently stir to mix – the ingredients should be combined but not completely smooth.
4
In another bowl, mix the reserved coconut oil with the granola to coat completely.
5
Spoon the muffin mixture into the paper cases, then spoon over the granola mixture. Slice the remaining coconut and scatter on top.
6
Bake for 20-25 mins or until golden and springy.
7
Leave the muffins in the tin for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool. Serve with strawberries.
