Tips:

  • Use ripe pineapple for the best flavor. Fresh or canned pineapple can be used, but if using canned, be sure to drain it well.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Be sure not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full. If you fill them too full, the muffins will overflow.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will make the muffins dry.
  • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before enjoying them. This will help them to set.
