Yummy yummy chocolate-coconut muffins

Time for a yummy recipe which you can try during the holidays :) 

I love the combination of coconut and chocolate so I came up with these muffins with a super yummy coconut topping.



What you will need:

1 1/4 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup warm water
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp distilled white or apple cider vinegar


Blend everything together and fill in a muffin tin. Bake for 15-20 minutes. 

And for the topping: 

Either vegan coconut-whip cream from the store
OR
blend full-fat coconut milkwith some sugar and vanilla and leave in the freezer or fridge for a few hours (more healthy, more yummy, more good ;)) 

These are just a great treat for you during the holidays. When I feel like eating something really sweet (which happens more often now that I am pregnant) I always prefer to make something myself instead of buying sweets. These muffins are not what I would call super healthy, but at least you know whats inside and you can choose e.g. whole-grain flour, brown sugar or agave syrup instead of sugar.

So enjoy and let me know how you liked these yummy little baked goods :)
