Pineapple Poppy Seed Muffins

Source: I adapted slightly from here, via Pinterest

Ingredients:
for the muffins:
Non-stick cooking spray
1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup sugar
1 beaten egg
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup buttermilk (I subbed ~3/4 teaspoon lemon juice + milk to 1/4 cup)
1/4 cup melted butter
1 (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple, well-drained and juice reserved
1 Tablespoon poppy seeds

for the glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 Tablespoons (or more) reserved pineapple juice

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Spray 12 muffin cups with non-stick cooking spray or line with paper baking cups.  In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, salt, baking soda, and sugar.  Make a well in center and add the egg, sour cream, buttermilk, and butter.  Mix until just blended (my mixture was thick), then stir in crushed pineapple and poppy seeds.  Fill prepared muffin cups with batter till about 3/4 filled.

Bake for about 20 minutes or until muffins are set and light golden brown on top. (They did not “puff” in center too much.)  Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl, stir together 1 cup powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons reserved pineapple juice until smooth (may use more pineapple juice if glaze is too thick).  Remove muffins from oven and place on wire rack on cookie sheet.  Drizzle glaze over each muffin while hot.  Let cool for about 10 minutes.  About 14 muffins.

Notes:
I came across a couple different pineapple muffin recipes on pinterest a while ago and this is the one I ended up choosing for my July Muffin of the Month.  Oh me!  Oh my!  They were amazing!  Gregg declared them my best muffin yet.  And that's saying something because I've made a TON of muffins in my time.  These little beauties taste just like pineapple upside down cake.  They're delightful!  Note that they are super, super moist muffins, and they really taste best on the first or second day, but we did keep them for about a week and they all got eaten!  Another note: the original recipe called for a cream cheese surprise in the middle of the muffin, but I didn't have any cream cheese, so I just skipped that part.  They were delightful as is, but if you feel like adding even more oomph, go ahead and check that out.
