Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 3 bananas, mashed

  • ¾ cup white sugar

  • cup butter, melted

  • 1 egg, beaten

  • 1 tablespoon rum-flavored extract

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • ½ (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained

  • ¾ cup shredded unsweetened coconut, divided

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.

  2. Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.
