Made as written - tasted weird and nobody liked them. Ended up throwing out 3 of the 10 that I made. Disappointed.

Very moist and tasty recipe. Cut to 12 servings for normal muffins. I did mix 1 tsp vanilla and 1/2 tsp nutmeg plus a little extra pineapple into the batter as well as put pineapple on top, will use more pineapple in batter next time, but still like the pineapple on top. When they mounded up, my pineapple and crumb topping were not evenly distributed, not sure what to do about that, but will have to experiment.

Good base recipe. I even tried my hardest to botch it and I didn't (I didn't add the milk and forgot the salt). I did add all of the pineapple juice to the batter which is probably why the milk not being there didn't make a huge impact. Can def tell the salt wasn't in there, but my mistake. I rated this a 4 because I did have to sub things in otherwise it would have been a frighteningly bland muffin. Added the pineapple to the batter, added cinnamon and nutmeg as well. Also, on the topping, I didn't have room temp butter, so I melted it and subbed 1/4 cup quick oats and did 1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp flour. This gave it the crumbly topping called for (also added a bit of fiber). Oh, and I did add nutmeg to the topping as well. Good base, otherwise! I'm going to see how this works with peaches! That will probably be absolutely outstanding!

i put the chopped pineapples in the mix and actually i think it made this recipe better. Also i put coconut shreds on top as well as the brown sugar topping i think the problem with this recipe is there needs to be a little bit more pineapple juice but besides that it is a decent recipe.

These were amazing! I made them wrong the first time and put the pineapple in the mix. The second time I made them right. I doubled the recipe. Living in Puerto Rico, things get wet in a hurry here, but these were gone before I had time to put any in the freezer. This one is a keeper.

Good recipe, but I agree with other reviewers that it needs some major modification. The idea of placing the pineapple on top of the batter is unique, but unfortunately results in a much less flavorful muffin. As per others suggestions, I highly recommend adding the pineapple directly to the batter. Using canned pineapple, I found that the muffin wasn’t as sweet as I normally like it, even with the addition of the crumb topping. To compensate, I sprinkled extra white sugar on the tops of the muffins and got rave reviews from hubby’s coworkers. I also added vanilla, cinnamon, a pinch of nutmeg, and rum extract. The muffins are truly beautiful, regardless of taste, they are very visually appealing.

These were really good. My only problem was that the topping mixture came out king of pasty so it was hard to "sprinkle" it on the muffins. Other than that GREAT recipe once you dont melt the butter.

I was trying to use up some leftover pineapple when I stumbled upon this recipe. I wasn't in the mood to make 18 muffins, tho, so I decided to to coffee/cake style. Made as directed (only change was adding a tbsp of vanilla/orange extract). Baked in 9" pan for 35" and it was simply wonderful. A little dry, perhaps, but I'm sure thats due to the way I baked it, but good eats with a cup of coffee. Nice job! I think tonight will serve with a small dollop of either whipped or ice cream on the side.

Very moist and good. The only thing that I did differently was add a teaspoon of vanilla to the batter. I may change the streusel topping as well. Overall, very good!

I added 1 tablespoon of Vanilla Extract and put the pineapple in the batter. I also added some blueberries. They came out really moist and the topping added the perfect amount of sweetness. I imagine they would come out rather bland without the pineapple and vanilla added to the batter.

I followed some of the recommendations. I used a larger can of crushed pineapple and added some to the batter, along with a little vanilla extract. They came out quite good and sweet. I followed the rest of the recipe as written.

I put all the ingredients together and mixed it. It was extremely tasty. I also oiled the bottom of the muffin tins. I didn't use the high temperture listed and my muffins fell. Maybe too much liquid or not enough heat.Will try again.

When will I learn to read the reviews before I make the recipe? As others stated, these turned out dry, stuck to the muffin papers and were over cooked, even at 25 minutes. I thought there was too much topping, and didn't use it all. If I try these again, I will definitely mix the pineapple into the batter, undrained, and use some vanilla. Has any one tried cooking these at a lower temperature? Maybe 350 F?

In all fairness we didnt follow the recipe exactly, my boyfriend insists he knows best, overbeating and additing way too much pineapple so that it was a big, moist, collapsed-muffin mess. Tasty but way to moist... so follow the recipe!

These are actually quite good. I used a 14 oz can of pineapple, half of which I added to the batter and half of which I used to top the muffins. I ran out of baking powder, so I didn't wuite use a full tablespoon- but there was no real difference. My sister was over when they came out of the oven and she proclaimed 'These are actually quite addictive!" (only after her 4th one!)

As a whole, these are pretty good, but they are more or less just a basic muffin. I could only taste a hint of the pineapple now and then in the ones I've eaten. If I make them again, I think I will try stirring the pineapple right into the batter. Also, at least for me, I found the recipe rather time-consuming, but it was a nice project for a chilly, wet mid-April Saturday afternoon. I doubled the recipe and used a 20-ounce can of crushed pineapple, which resulted in 30 cupcake-sized muffins. I used paper liners, but next time will probably spray the cups with non-stick cooking spray instead. The liners tended to stick to the muffins when I sampled them the same day I baked them, especially to the bottoms. However, after refrigerating them overnight, the paper peeled off a lot easier. There was also too much butter in the topping, so I added some extra flour and brown sugar to make it more "sprinkleable."

I’m an absolute muffin addict, and I couldn’t have been more impressed by these muffins. It’s a wonderful, light and easy to make recipe – and also surprisingly healthy as regards sugars levels. I didn’t bother making the topping, and mine turned out just lovely. I mixed in a dash of cinnamon to the main mixture, and also put in ½ cup of pineapple juice – this turned out great. I’ll definitely bake it again!
