Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 F. First whisk you eggs whites until soft peaks are formed. In another bowl, sift your dry ingredients (sugar, flours, baking powder, salt, etc) together and mix. In another bowl mix your oil, cream, and extracts and mix all together. Combine your wet ingredients with the dry ingredients.
Fold in your egg whites to the dry ingredients. Gently fold in your shredded coconut.
Stir again until combined, not overmixing.
Pour into greased medium or large muffin cups about 1/2 to 2/3 of the way full. Bake for about 18-20 minutes or until center comes out clean with toothpick
Remove from oven and Let cool on cooling rack.
Tip – If the batter is too thick, depending on how fine your almond flour is, then blend batter in the blender and add a few more tbsp of cream or water until batter is smooth.
