Pineapple banana muffins bring together two tropical fruits in one moist, fluffy bite. Quick, easy, and packed with fruity flavor—perfect for breakfast or snacks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups mashed ripe bananas (about 3 medium)
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple (with juice, not drained)
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup melted butter or coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
  • ¼ tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
  2. Mash bananas in a large bowl. Add pineapple, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla; stir until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon (if using), and salt.
  4. Fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture just until combined—do not overmix.
  5. Fill muffin cups ¾ full with the batter.
  6. Bake 20–24 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Cool in the pan 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use very ripe bananas for best sweetness. Do not drain pineapple—the juice adds essential moisture. Let batter rest 10 minutes before baking for fluffier muffins.
