Golden Pineapple Muffins are muffins made with chunks of sweet, juicy pineapple and other ingredients such as flour, sugar, baking powder, milk, and eggs. They are typically baked until golden brown on the outside and moist and tender on the inside, with a subtle tropical flavor from the pineapple. Golden Pineapple Muffins can be served for breakfast, as a snack, or even as a dessert.
