Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup fruit preserves (like apricot or raspberry)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, shredded coconut, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together almond milk, vegetable oil, egg yolks, and almond extract.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  6. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter until no white streaks remain.
  7. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  9. Let the chiffon bites cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  10. Once cooled, top each bite with a dollop of fruit preserves.

Notes

Tip: For an extra touch, sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes before serving.

For a fun twist, try substituting the almond extract with vanilla or another favorite flavor. If you want to add some crunch, consider mixing in some chopped nuts or toasted coconut flakes.

These bites can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat briefly in the microwave for that fresh-baked feel!
