For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of rum extract to the wet ingredients. Mini muffins bake in approximately 10-12 minutes; keep a close eye on them to prevent burning. Toasting the coconut and almonds enhances their flavor and adds a delightful crunch. Spread them on a baking sheet and toast in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown, watching carefully to prevent burning. These muffins are best enjoyed within 2-3 days of baking. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature. For longer storage, freeze them for up to 2 months. Thaw completely before serving.
