Ingredients
Cupcakes
- 1 egg

- 0.25 cup vegetable oil I used sunflower oil
- 0.25 cup milk
- 2 tbsp or more brown sugar
- 1.5 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions
Instructions: Cupcakes with fresh pineapple, cream cheese frosting and pineapple flowers
- In a bowl mix the egg, chopped pineapple, oil, milk and sugar.
- Add sifted flour and baking powder and stir briefly. Do not overmix the batter.
- Line your muffin pan with paper liners and fill up to 3/4 in height with the prepared batter. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
- For the flower decoration: peel the pineapple and cut it with a sharp knife into very thin slices (a couple of millimeters). Dry the slices with kitchen paper and laid on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Bake in preheated oven at 100 °C for 1 hour – 1 hour and a half turning a couple of times while baking. Switch off the oven and place hot slices inside cups, or like I did, in the muffin tin. They will dry out completely and and will have the shape of a flower.
- For the frosting beat the butter until it becomes light and frothy, add the cream cheese and icing sugar and beat again until all the ingredients are combined.
- Decorate cupcakes with cream cheese frosting then add the pineapple flower and serve.
