Texas Lime in the Coconut Muffins image

This recipe was devised when I had a lot of limes on hand. I'm sure you could use any citrus fruit you like. The key is using healthy ingredients! This muffin is a moderately sweet breakfast treat but much healthier than sweet cereal. The coconut oil is very healthy for you, and so is the flaxseed. Never use margarine! Always use non-aluminum baking powder. I use white whole wheat flour, it comes from white wheat instead of red wheat. These are always a hit at my house.

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ⅓ cups raw sugar

These muffins are definitely not worth the effort. They're bland and boring.

I found the texture of these muffins to be a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some extra butter or oil next time.

The muffins didn't rise as much as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These muffins are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
