Pina Colada Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a muffin pan, or use paper liners.
• In a large bowl, combine sugar, margarine, egg, sour cream and rum extract. Beat together until smooth. In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Blend into egg mixture. Stir in pineapple and coconut. Divide batter into 12 muffin cups.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tops spring back when lightly tapped.

Steps:

• Prepare cake mix following package instructions.
• Add other ingredients.
• Mix 1 minute- don't over-mix.
• Grease muffin tins and fill 3/4 full.
• Bake at 350ºF for 15-20 minutes.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine the pineapple and rum. Bring to a boil then take off of the heat and soak for 30 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter the top of muffin tin and place paper liners in the cups.
• Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, beat the butter with a mixer on medium until creamy. Add sugar gradually until light.
• Add the eggs one at a time until well combined.
• On low speed, add sour cream, zest, and vanilla. Mixture may look curdled.
• Gently add the flour mixture plus the pineapple and coconut, stirring just enough to combine.
• Spoon mixture into muffin tin. Bake for 15-20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
• Serve warm or room temperature.

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together; set aside.
• In another larger bowl, whisk the cream of coconut, pineapple, rum, and egg until blended; stir into flour mixture until moistened.
• Prepare muffin tin by spraying cups and the rims around them with nonstick cooking spray.
• Fill cups 3/4 full with batter.
• Bake in a 400° oven for 23 minutes or until muffins are well browned and a pick comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
• Place pan on a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes.
• Remove muffins from pan (gently tip each muffin to one side to make sure it isn't stuck--if one is stuck, gently rock back and forth to release from pan) and cool 5 minutes on rack.

Steps:

• Make the pineapple curd: Whisk the granulated sugar, pineapple juice and salt in a medium saucepan. Whisk in the eggs and egg yolks until combined. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly and reducing the heat if the mixture starts bubbling too much, until the curd is the consistency of pudding, 7 to 8 minutes (you should have a little over 1 cup).
• Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter and rum (if using). Strain the curd through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing it through with a rubber spatula. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly on the surface, and refrigerate until completely cooled, about 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Line 12 muffin cups with paper or foil liners. Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Combine the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl and beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then beat in the vanilla. With the mixer on medium speed, beat in half of the flour mixture, then the milk, then the remaining flour mixture until combined.
• Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them two-thirds of the way. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the centers of the cupcakes comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 10 minutes in the pan, then remove the cupcakes to the rack to cool completely.
• Make the frosting: Combine the butter and confectioner's sugar in a large bowl; beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until smooth and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the coconut extract and milk; beat until smooth.
• Using a paring knife, cut a slit in the top of each cupcake, cutting about three-quarters of the way down. Fill a piping bag with the pineapple curd; pipe the curd into the slit in each cupcake. Fill another piping bag with the frosting and pipe onto the cupcakes (or spread the frosting on the cupcakes). Top with the shredded coconut.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.
• Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
• Stir bananas, sugar, butter, egg, rum-flavored extract, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Fold flour mixture into banana mixture 1 cup at a time. Add pineapple chunks and 1/2 cup coconut; fold gently into batter. Pour batter into prepared muffin cups and top each with about 1 teaspoon shredded coconut.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan before removing to a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 35 cupcake cups with paper liners.
• Beat sugar, butter, and oil together in a bowl with an electric mixer until creamy and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time. Stir in pineapple, milk, and 1/4 cup brandy.
• Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in another bowl. Add slowly to the sugar mixture, beating with an electric hand mixer to get a light, fluffy batter.
• Spoon batter into the cupcake liners, leaving about 1/8 inch of each liner free (this cake doesn't rise a lot).
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, about 17 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and immediately spoon 1 teaspoon of brandy over the top of each cupcake; let seep into the cake. Let cool completely.
• Beat cream of coconut and cream cheese together with an electric mixer until it is lump-free. Frost cooled cupcakes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Mix all ingredients.
• Pour into lined muffin tins.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes until done.
• Cool for five minutes.
• Transfer to cooling rack until completely cooled.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F Line a 12-cup muffin pan with muffin cups, and grease the cups.
• In a large bowl, beat together the butter, sugar, vanilla, and coconut or rum flavor. Add the bananas, honey, eggs, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt, beating until smooth. Stir in the flour, then the dried fruit. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups. Sprinkle each muffin with coconut.
• Bake the muffins for 25 to 28 minutes, until a cake tester inserted into the center of one comes out clean.
• Remove from the oven, and as soon as possible tilt each muffin in its cup, to allow air to circulate and prevent the bottoms from steaming. Serve warm, or at room temperature.
• Note: If you find yourself a bit short of 1 1/2 cups mashed banana? Rather than cut a chunk off another banana, top off the measuring cup with applesauce, if desired.
• Note: Don't use canned pineapple; it's too juicy and will make the muffins soggy. If you like, substitute another dried fruit: chopped dates, raisins, or chopped apricots are all good choices.
