1 1/2 cups Flour
2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/2 cup Coconut

1/4 cup Butter, softened
1/2 cup Sugar
1 Egg, slightly beaten
3/4 cup Milk
Splash of Vanilla

Spice Mix

1/2 cup Brown Sugar
2 Tablespoons Flour
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
2 Tablespoons Butter

Preheat oven to 400F
Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners or spray lightly with vegetable oil spray.

In large bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt and coconut; make a well in the centre and set aside.

In another mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar together.
Add egg and continue beating until light and fluffy.
Stir in milk and vanilla.

In small bowl combine all of the Spice Mix ingredients, rubbing the butter into the dry ingredients forming a coarse crumb mixture.

Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined.

Spoon part of the batter into the prepared muffin cups to 1/3 full.
Sprinkle each muffin with a scant teaspoon the Spice Mix.
Spoon the remaining batter over top of the filling to 2/3 full.
Sprinkle with remaining Spice Mix.

Bake in 400F oven for 20 – 25 minutes.
Remove from oven to wire rack, letting muffins stand for 10 minutes before turning out directly onto wire rack to cool completely.

Absolutely yummy!
