Sylvia's Pineapple Muffins

Always thinking, Sylvia devised these golden muffins to use up the pineapple sauce she had made to accompany her great-nephew's birthday cupcakes and ice cream. It did not get used.

Ingredients:
  • 1 small container fresh pineapple chunks with the juice
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 rounded tsp cornstarch 
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla 

Methods: 
Combine the first 3 ingredients in a small saucepan, cook over a medium heat for several minutes until thickened and saucy. Allow the sauce to cool somewhat before making the muffins. You'll need 1&1/2 cups of pineapple sauce for this recipe.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. 

Mix the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt together in a medium-sized bowl. In a second bowl combine the egg and sugar, then stir in the oil, yogurt, pineapple sauce and vanilla. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Fill muffin cups 2/3 full, and bake for 15-18 minutes.
