Ingredients

30 mins
12 servings
  1. 250 gramsshredded coconut
  2. 3eggs
  3. 1/2freshly squeezed lemon juice
  4. 1 tspvanilla essence (optional)
  5. any food coloring (optional)
  6. 250 gramswhite sugar (reduce sugar amount to have it less sweeter)

Cooking Instructions

30 mins
  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 180 Celsius/ gas mark 4.

  2. 2

    Using a wooden spoon mix all the ingredients together in a bowl until the mixture is smooth. Note that you can add 1-2 extra eggs to make it really moist inside. With 3 eggs its a sticky type of moist.

  3. 3

    Line a cupcake tray with cupcake liners.

  4. 4

    Using a tablespoon, spoon into each cupcake liner. Don't worry too much if they are really messy it'll even out when cook.

  5. 5

    Place in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the top of the cupcake has become golden brown. Times will vary depending on your oven settings. Reduce time to have them just caramelised, I like them with a bit of crunch on top so I cook it for longer.

  6. 6

    Once they are golden brown on top they are done.

  7. 7

    ((If you press down on the cupcakes and they bounce back then they are done.))

  8. 8

    Remove them from the oven and let them cool completely on a metal rack.

  9. 9

    Tip: Sprinkle with powdered Sugar or granulated coloured sugar. They also typically add a cocktail cherry on top.

  10. 10

    All also made it in a round baking tray, I think its an 8 by 8 inch tray but any size small to medium baking tray will do. To do this I greased the baking tray and lined with greaseproof paper then I added the mixture. I upped the oven temperature to 200 Celsius and baked for about 40-45 minutes, until it started to almost burn on top.
