Portuguese Coconut Cupcakes Recipe: Easy 3-Ingredient Treat

Preheat the oven to 180ºC or 350ºF.

In a food processor, add the coconut, eggs, and sugar. Blend until the mixture is uniform and the coconut is well-incorporated into the eggs.

Line the paper cups on a cupcake tray and pour the batter into the cups. Fill them almost to the top, as these do not rise like traditional sponge cakes.

Decorate each center with a crystallized cherry. Place the tray in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.

Unmold and serve warm for a soft texture, or cold for a firmer, macaroon-like bite.
