I've used the recipe from Emily Luchetti's Four-Star Desserts (could only find <a href="http://alpineberry.blogspot.sg/2007/07/hummingbird-cupcakes.html" rel="nofollow">this adaptation</a> online. Yum. <br /><br />And you should try these coconut muffins, which are definitely good with chopped dates and probably would be good with chopped bananas or mango: <br /><br />Vanilla Coconut Muffins<br />2 1/4 cups all purpose flour (could use some whole wheat)<br />2 tsp baking powder<br />1/2 tsp salt<br />1 cup sugar (I use mixture of brown/white)<br />2 cups shredded coconut, toasted<br />2 large eggs<br />1 cup milk (regular or coconut)<br />1 tbsp vanilla extract<br />5 tbsp. (2.5 oz) butter, melted<br /><br />Butter muffin tins or use muffin papers. Mix together ingredients. Bake 350F oven ~15 min for mini muffins (my preference), 22-25 min for large ones. <br />Janenoreply@blogger.com
