Coconut and Blueberry Muffins

A wonderful high fibre, low sugar treat combining sweet blueberries with light fragrant coconut. The addition of the coconut butter keeps these muffins beautifully moist and light in texture. All berries are packed full of antioxidants particularly anthocyanins as well as vitamin C to keep the immune system healthy and blueberries like cranberries contain natural anti-bacterial properties that can help prevent and treat urinary tract infections such as cystitis. Including ground flaxseeds not only increases the fibre content but are an excellent source of omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, vital for a healthy heart, skin and hair.
