Instructions

  1. Put the flour, collagen powder, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Stir until combined.

  3. Add the pineapple and shredded coconut, gently fold until combined.

  4. Line a 12-count muffin pan with paper or foil liners and spoon the mixture into the liners (I used an ice cream scoop).
