An excellent recipe! The muffins are light and fluffy and the coconut makes all the difference to the flavour. I only got 12 muffins from the batter but perhaps my cases were larger. Thanks Danielle!

I tried this one last weekend. They were very good. I did add pecans because my husband loves them in his banana bread. The coconut gave it a little extra taste.
