Vegan Pina Colada Muffins
These delicious muffins will be popular with family and friends, regardless whether they're vegans or not. They're quick, easy to make, and the recipe is refreshingly versatile. For example, those with a particular taste preference or dietary requirement can easily improvise with alternate ingredients: if you have a sweet tooth, add more jaggery or an alternate sweetener, or if you don't have any coconut cream, perhaps try almond milk instead. If the mixture become a little runny, just add more self-raising flour.

If you've never cooked with it before, jaggery is a product of the date palm tree and sugarcane. It's easily available at most Asian grocery stores.
Happy cooking and Bon Appetite.
