I used Coconut Oil in these instead of utilizing butter and the results are amazing! There’s something about the mix of coconut and lemon that is hard to resist, fresh and tropical and just so irresistible.
Now all that’s left to do is sit back, sip on a cup of mint tea, grab a Coconut Lemon Muffin and let the sunshine in. Simple.
