Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Pineapple, crushed with juice
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Shredded coconut (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly with nonstick spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well-mixed.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add the crushed pineapple with its juice, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
Step 4
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined, being careful not to overmix. If desired, fold in the shredded coconut for added texture.
Step 5
Evenly divide the batter among the muffin tin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy the tropical flavors of Hawaii with every bite!
