They specially loved decorating them and you can see the delight on their faces.
For the muffins you will need:
4 cups self raising flour
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
juice and grated zest of half a lemon
1 cup coconut
4 tablespoons olive oil
4 eggs
4 tablespoons honey or stevia or 2 of each
Sieve the flour and mix all the dry ingredients together. In a separate container mix all the liquid ingredients together. Use a metal spoon to fold in the wet ingredients into the dry ones. Prepare muffin cases on a try. Spoon or pipe the batter into the cases. Bake in a pre heated oven at 170C for 20 minutes.
Allow the muffins to cool before decorating them.
To avoid processed sugar in the form of icing, I brushed the top of the muffins with warm honey and allowed the kids to decorate them to their liking.

it is a dry batter brigette but if you watched me make them on tv, i said that you may need to add water to make it a dropping consistency. the result of ours and viewers who got back to me was excellent.

Thank you for your prompt reply, unfortunately I did not watch the TV program. Common sense told me to add 1 cup of milk, which I did and the result was good.

ah i see brigette, yes i added water on tv and explained to add enough water to achieve a dropping consistency. I try very much to give confidence to viewers to show that baking can be easy and its a question of recognizing the right consistency. Thank you for pointing out as I will add it to the recipe.
