Pina Colada Cupcakes Recipe

Pina colada is one of my favourite drinks. When I made this pina colada cupcakes recipe it became my favourite. It will be yours as well.

I always look to change things up and try new things, when I tried this pina colada cupcakes recipe I wanted to share it here. It’s simple yet moist, delicious and easy.

These cupcakes are great for a pool party or a Hawaiian theme party. Or if you just feel like making them for no reason, then you can.

I topped these cupcakes with coconut buttercream frosting, the combination was perfect.

These were so light and it wasn’t too sweet at all, which is what I love. But my favourite part was biting into the cupcakes and biting into chunks of pineapples. The pineapples were soft and literally felt like it burst into your mouth. I love it.

I hope you enjoy this recipe.

Let’s get into it.

Ingredients:

(makes 12 cupcakes)

  • 2 cups Flour, sifted
  • 1/2 cup Coconut milk, at room temperature
  • 2 tsp Baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 8 oz Crushed pineapples
  • 1/2 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable oil
  • 1 cup Coconut buttercream frosting

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F/175°C.
  2. Line a cupcake pan with liners. (I used a silicone cupcake pan with silicone liners, it’s easier for me. That is just my preference.).
  3. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs, sugar and vegetable oil until combined. Once everything is well incorporated, add the vanilla and pineapple chunks. Mix everything together.
  4. Sift in the flour, baking soda and baking powder into the wet ingredients. Pour in the coconut milk and mix everything together.
  5. Pour the batter into the cupcake pan and bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in comes out clean.
  6. When they are done baking, let them cool for 10-15 minutes before removing from pan and cool for 20 minutes more.
  7. Frost the cupcakes with the coconut frosting once they are completely cool. Serve and enjoy!
