Pineapple Muffins



Pineapple Muffins has a great flavor and is loved especially by kids. Muffins has always been easy on the go snack and also a quick breakfast . I think muffins also helps us experiment and is good for a beginner bakers like me. This was a tasty treat inspired by the pineapple upside down cake and my family enjoyed. I enjoyed it as a tea time snack rather than as a breakfast.

All purpose flour- 2 cups
Pineapple- 1 cup ( chopped)
Eggs- 2
Sugar - 1/2 cup
Baking powder- 1 tsp
Baking soda- 1/2 tsp
Sour cream-1/4 cup
Butter- 2 tsp
Brown sugar- 3 tsp
Pine apple juice- 1/2 cup
Orange zest- 1 tsp
Salt- a pinch
Nutmeg- a dash.




Preheat oven to 350 degree F, grese muffin tray or line up paper cups and set asie.
Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt together and keep aside.
In a mixing bowl add melted butter and sugar and combine well. Mix well using a hand mixer or an electric one. Add eggs one at a time and beat well after each addition. Pour this into the dry mixture and incorporate it gently along with sour cream and pineapple juice and orange zest ( mine was a thicker batter consistency and could be scooped out)
Line up muffin baking tray with paper cups and pour this mixture. Fill only half cup.
Mix in brown sugar, pineapple and nutmeg and spoon in as much as you like into the cups( mix with sugar and put it in only last minute or it will become watery) Put in oven 350 degree F for about 10 minutes or till the muffins are lightly browned up.
