Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ½ cup coconut milk
- 6 tbsp light brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 cup sweet rice flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 8 oz dark chocolate cut into chunks
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C).
- Brown your butter. Heat butter over medium high heat until it completely melts. Lower the heat to medium low and cook until brown bits start to appear. Pour into a large mixing bowl. Let it cool for 2-3 minutes.
- Once cool, add the coconut milk, light brown sugar, vanilla extract, egg, and salt to the bowl. Mix until combined.
- Add the sweet rice flour and baking powder. Mix until a smooth batter forms.
- Add the dark chocolate chunks. Mix until combined.
- Grease the muffin pan.
- Using a cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the muffin batter into the pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until the edges turn a golden color.
- Cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- How do you store these muffins? - Store these muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Can I use less sugar? - Yes you can, but it will make the muffin drier since sugar provides both moisture and sweetness. I would reduce the sweet rice flour by the same amount if you choose to reduce the sugar.
