Instructions

1 Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, white sugar, and brown sugar until
creamed and well combined.

Stir in milk, vegetable oil, olive oil, shredded coconut, and almond flour,
mixing until fully incorporated.

Slowly add coconut flour, three tablespoons at a time, stirring well after each
addition. If the batter feels too wet, add 2-3 more tablespoons of coconut flour
as needed.

Mix in the baking powder until evenly distributed.

Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners and distribute the batter evenly among
them.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the muffins turn golden brown and a toothpick
inserted comes out clean.
2 While the muffins are baking, prepare the pastry cream. In a large saucepan,
whisk together egg yolks, sugar, cornstarch, and coconut milk over low heat.

Stir constantly for about 5 minutes, until the mixture thickens.

Remove from heat and immediately stir in coconut oil and white chocolate, mixing
until fully combined.

Let the pastry cream cool for 10-15 minutes, then whip for 4-5 minutes to make
it extra creamy.

Allow both the pastry cream and muffins to cool completely before assembling.
3 Transfer the pastry cream to a pastry bag fitted with a small piping tip.

Carefully insert the tip into each muffin and pipe a small amount of cream
inside. Then, pipe additional cream on top to frost.

Garnish with white or dark chocolate shavings, if desired.
4 Serve immediately, or store in the refrigerator for a chilled treat.
