Pineapple Macadamia Upside Down Muffins Recipe

Pineapple Macadamia Upside Down Muffins

From chefmeow 17 years ago

Yummo is all I can say. Without a doubt one of my favorite cupcake recipes. These are elegant, impressive, light and very most.

Preheat oven to 375.
Grease 12 cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
Melt butter until bubbly.
Add brown sugar and cook until sugar and butter are well combined.
Divide mixture evenly between muffin cups.
Place four pineapple pieces in butter sugar mixture in the bottom of each muffin cup and sprinkle 1 tablespoon coarsely chopped macadamia nuts over the pineapple.
In large mixing bowl combine dry ingredients.
In separate bowl beat eggs together with melted butter and milk then mix wet and dry ingredients until just combined.
Divide batter evenly between muffin cups on top of pineapple and macadamia nuts.
Bake 25 minutes then invert onto warming rack removing muffin tin carefully.
If some of the pineapple pieces stay in the tin remove them and place them on top of the muffins again.
Allow muffins to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve upside down.

These are so good! I cut the recipe in half but I ended up adding about 1 tbsp more milk. The batter was pretty thick but I didn't want to mess with it too much. I'd suggest placing a sheet pan under the muffin tin in case some of the sugary butter overflows (which happened in my case). I did have to scoop all of the pineapple out and place it on the top of each muffin - a messy, yummy task. Thanks for this great recipe!

When/ where does the orange peel go in? Into the batter, perhaps? Sounds awesome!
