Pineapple Cupcake

Pineapple Cupcake

Ingredients

Butter: Unsalted sweet cream butter is what I tested the recipe with and it’s fantastic.

Sugar: This recipe calls for a blend of light brown and regular granulated white sugar for sweetness and moisture.

Eggs: The eggs help hold the cupcakes together as well as add richness.

Vanilla: I used homemade vanilla extract but any high-quality pure vanilla will work. Vanilla bean paste is also a great option if you want more flavor.

Flour: All-purpose flour works well in this recipe.

Leavening: Baking powder is used in the recipe so the cupcakes rise tall and fluffy.

Salt: Just a little salt is added to balance the flavors.

Crushed pineapple: From a can is fine. Don’t drain it – it gives the cupcakes their fruity tropical flavor.
