Pineapple Macadamia Muffins

Teresa Ambra

Pineapple Macadamia Muffins are delightful. These wonderful muffins include bananas, pineapple, coconut and cinnamon in the muffin itself. Then they’re topped with chopped macadamia nuts for a topping. Yes, they’re super scrumptious. They weren’t difficult to whip up either. If you’re able to purchase chopped macadamia nuts, it’s hardly any work at all!

Back in June, I had a friend that had foot surgery. I ended up making a couple of meals for her during her convalescence. One featured Ravioli Lasagna, Rapid Rise Italian Herb Bread, (my go-to breadmaker recipe), Pineapple Chiffon Salad, Almond Fudge Shortbread for dessert, and these muffins for breakfast. The second meal included Slow Cooker Beef Stew, my homemade Easy No-Knead Dinner Rolls, Church Jello, and Blueberry Almond Blondies. They loved the meals, and I always enjoy cooking for others.

These Pineapple Macadamia Muffins are a hearty, rather filling, muffin. It’s a great recipe to use up over-ripe bananas. It’s a little crunchy from the macadamia nuts and just all over good from the pineapple and other flavors in the muffins. These muffins are great to serve up for a weekend, company or holiday breakfast. If you need to, you can freeze them and pull them out later as needed. No matter what, everyone loves these delicious muffins. You will too!
