Ingredients

• 1 cup white sugar
• 1/2 cup margarine
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 cup mashed bananas
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 (10 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained and chopped

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour 12 muffins cups or line with paper liners.

Beat sugar and margarine together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; stir in eggs. Stir bananas into margarine mixture; stir in vanilla extract.

Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl; stir into margarine mixture until just combined. Fold oranges and coconut into batter. Spoon batter into muffin tins.
