These coconut cupcakes are so fluffy and tender, it’s hard to stop at just having one. They are best eaten warm or just fresh out of the steamer.
Be sure to use QL Omega eggs for that extra kick of health and taste. High in Omega 3, the eggs are perfect for baking (or just for eating on their own). You can find them at all good Malaysian supermarkets.
