I was recently given the book, Healthy Breakfast Recipes, from the author, Alissa Carter. It's the perfect cookbook for me-- there are a lot of different options, including sweet and savory.  I made these quick and delicious muffins, which I adapted from a loaf recipe in the book. If you like coconut, these are the muffins for you. I posted my recipe adaptation here

Also, please take some time to welcome my newest sponsor by checking out her great shop, Good Measure.

These muffins looks scrumptious. I'm putting the ingredients on my shopping list.
The books sounds interesting too. Does it contain any photos or just text recipes without pictures?

Blueberry and coconut is a favorite combo in our house, usually in the form of pancakes. Can't wait to try these muffins which also happen to be a good snowy day project.

Blueberry muffins with coconut is an unbelievable combination. And a nice breakfast to wake up to this morning, considering it's snowing outside right now where I live. ;)

Lovely breakfast, as always! =)

The look delicious!

So I immediately went and put this recipe into my calorie counter. For 6 muffins each one is 270 calories and only 4g of carbs. Not bad! Unfortunately each muffin has 27g of fat, but it's all from coconut and flaxseed so it can't be bad. Where do you find dessicated coconut?

jen said...

Caroline, I actually used some unsweetened coconut that I had in the house.

Gen said...

Beautiful! I love the colors!

Cécile said...

Looks so good!
Try that also for breakfast!!
