Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with muffin cases. Tip 25g of the flour, 20g of the oats and all the coconut flakes into a large bowl and stir together with a pinch of salt. Add half the maple syrup and stir with a fork until combined. Set aside – this is your topping.

  • step 2

  • step 3

    Whisk together the remaining flour and oats in a large bowl with the baking powder, bicarb, cardamom and cinnamon with a pinch of salt. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir together until just combined. Fold in the pineapple.

  • step 4

    Divide the batter between the muffin cases, then top the muffins with the crumble mixture. Transfer to the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre of the muffins comes out clean. Leave to cool for 5 minutes in the tins, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
