Ingredients
  

The Batter:
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • ½ cup (100g) Coconut sugar
  • ⅓ cup (80ml) Neutral oil (like grapeseed or avocado oil)
  • 2 tbsp (32g) Raw tahini (stir well before use)
  • 2 heaping tbsp Honey (or date syrup for a vegan-friendly version)
  • ½ cup (120ml) Warm water (not boiling)
  • 1 cup (140g) Self-rising flour(Tip: Or 1 cup all-purpose flour + 1 tsp baking powder)
  • 2 tbsp (20g) High-quality cocoa powder
The Chocolate Glaze
  • 2 tbsp Raw Tahini
  • 1-2 tbsp Silan (Date syrup)
  • 1 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp Coconut oil (for a glossy finish)
  • A pinch of Sea salt

Method
 

  1. Prep: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and coconut sugar until slightly frothy. Add the oil, tahini, honey, and warm water. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Dry Ingredients: Sift in the flour and cocoa powder. Fold gently with a spatula just until combined—do not overmix, or the muffins will become dense.
  4. Bake: Pour the batter into the liners, filling them about 3/4 full. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  5. Glaze: While the muffins cool, mix the glaze ingredients in a small bowl. Drizzle generously over the muffins before serving.
