Instructions
Muffins
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 12 standard muffin cups with butter or nonstick cooking spray or line with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl whisk the eggs. Add vanilla, coconut milk, melted butter and brown sugar; whisk until combined. Fold the mangos into the wet ingredients.
In a medium bowl stir together dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, salt and coconut.
Add dry ingredients to the liquid mixture in the large bowl. With a spatula stir just until combined and all flour is absorbed. Batter will be thick. Spoon the muffin batter evenly into each muffin cup.
Streusel Topping
In a small bowl mix the streusel topping ingredients: flour, brown sugar, 3 tablespoons of the coconut and butter until combined and mixture is crumbly.
Evenly sprinkle the top of each muffin with streusel topping. Sprinkle remaining 3 tablespoons coconut on top of each muffin. Bake until golden about 20 - 22 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes then unmold the muffins and place on a rack to cool completely.
