Ingredients

  • 3 Overripe Bananas
  • 1/2 Cup Vegetable Oil
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 1 1/2 Tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 2 1/2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 Tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 1 Tsp Baking Soda
  • 2/3 Cup Shredded Sweetened Coconut + extra for topping
  • 1 Cup Canned Crushed Pineapple, drained very well
  • Optional: Turbinado Sugar, for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a muffin tin with muffin cups (or spray with non-stick spray).
  • In a large bowl, beat the bananas on medium speed for a minute or two until they have fluffed up a little.
  • Add the vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla, and mix for another minute until well combined.
  • Next, add the flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda. Mix by hand or on low speed until just combined. Do not over mix.
  • Now add the coconut and crushed pineapple. Stir by hand until well incorporated.
  • Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling 3/4 of the way full.
    Optional: top each muffin with a little extra shredded coconut and a sprinkle of turbinado sugar.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes until the muffins are golden in color and an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Let the muffins cool for 15 minutes before enjoying.
    Store leftover muffins in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
    Enjoy!
