Preheat oven 375 degrees F. Line muffin pan.
-
In bowl, whisk avocado oil, butter and sugar until smooth. Add eggs, vanilla, lime zest and mango puree. Whisk to combine and set aside.
-
In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Sift mixture three times (this step will yield extra-fluffy muffins!).

In large bowl, combine both wet and dry ingredients and stir in poppy seeds until combined.

Recipe Notes
- For homemade mango puree, cut large mango into chunks and blend. The mixture acts as a natural thickener and sweetener.
- Store muffins in tin box or glass cake stand with cover for up to three days on counter. Muffins can last up to eight days in refrigerator.
