flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Whole wheat adds fiber and nutrients.

Measure 4 cups of all-purpose flour and sift it well.

Grate 1 nutmeg seed and add it to the flour along with 1 tablespoon of baking powder and a pinch of salt. Mix well and set aside.

In a mixing bowl, add 1 cup of margarine and 4 tablespoons of sugar. Mix until well combined.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the margarine and sugar mixture in batches, mixing until you achieve a sandy texture. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, break 1 egg and add 1 teaspoon of vanilla essence and 1/2 cup of evaporated milk. Mix well.

Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add the wet ingredients. Mix to form a dough without kneading.

Set the dough aside and prepare the filling by placing 2 cups of grated coconut in a pot.

Add 1 tablespoon of grated ginger (optional), 1 tablespoon of cinnamon powder (or nutmeg), 1 egg, 2 tablespoons of margarine, 1/2 cup of condensed milk, and 1/2 cup of water to the pot.

Cook the filling on low heat for about 5 to 6 minutes while stirring continuously until it thickens. Remove from heat.

Grease a muffin pan with margarine and distribute the dough into the muffin cups, leaving space in the middle.

Fill the center of each dough with the coconut filling.

Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 35 to 40 minutes.
