2 1/2 cup all purpose or white wheat flour
1 cup oat bran
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
16 ounces pineapple

  • In a large bowl, combine your flour, sugars, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Drain both of your cans of Dole Crushed Pineapple. Pour pineapple into a food processor and puree.

Add your pineapple/banana puree, eggs, oil, vanilla and yogurt to your dry ingredients. Combine ingredients until just mixed. Add in your white chocolate chips and shredded coconut if desired. Fill paper lined or greased muffins tins 2/3 to 3/4 of the way full. If desired sprinkle a bit of shredded coconut on top.
