Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine your flour, sugars, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

Drain both of your cans of Dole Crushed Pineapple. Pour pineapple into a food processor and puree. Peel your Dole Bananas and add them to the pineapple mixture, pureeing again. You do not have to puree your bananas, if you prefer you can simply mash them with the fork.

Add your pineapple/banana puree, eggs, oil, vanilla and yogurt to your dry ingredients. Combine ingredients until just mixed.

Add in your white chocolate chips and shredded coconut if desired.

Fill paper lined or greased muffins tins 2/3 to 3/4 of the way full. If desired sprinkle a bit of shredded coconut on top.

Bake at 350°F for 13 to 16 minutes or until a toothpick into the center comes out clean. Let cool and enjoy!
