Pineapple Carrot Raisin Muffins image

My father got muffins from a tenant of his (who happens to be a chef). My mom made my dad ask the chef if he would write down the recipe for her Then, My mom asked if I would make it, and I agreed with a sort of "ehhh, pineapple??" attitude. haha. Well, it's delicious! It's light and sweet. and I baked mine until they sort of got crsip around the edges (crunchy muffin tops are lovely in my opinion). The original recipe calls for walnuts, but I personally use chopped almonds instead.

CARROT PINEAPPLE MUFFINS



Carrot Pineapple Muffins image

Categories     Carrot     Bake     Bread     Breakfast

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 1/4 ounces Pineapple; Crushed, 1 Cn
1 Skim Milk
2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
1 1/3 cups Brown Sugar; Packed
1 tablespoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
2 tablespoons Sugar
1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
3/4 cup Carrots; Grated
1/3 cup Vegetable Oil
1 Egg, Beaten
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla

Steps:

  • Drain the Pineapple, reserving the juice. Add enough skim milk to the juice to make 3/4 cup of liquid, then set aside. Combine the next 7 ingredients in a large bowl, stirring until the carrots are well coated. Make a well in the center of the mixture. Combine the milk mixture, oil, egg and vanilla; then add to the dry ingredients. Stir until just moistened and no flour streaks remain. Spoon into muffin tins that have been coated with a non-stick spray, filling each cup 2/3rds full. Bake at 375 degrees F. for 20 to 25 minutes or until done. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh pineapple and carrots will give your muffins the best flavor and texture. If you're using canned pineapple, be sure to drain it well before adding it to the batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups evenly: Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. This will help the muffins rise evenly.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will usually take about 20-25 minutes.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

Pineapple carrot muffins are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They're easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their moist texture, sweet flavor, and colorful appearance, these muffins are sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
