Ingredients

1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
1/4 cup canola oil
5 teaspoons brown sugar
18 to 20 maraschino cherries, halved

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°. Drain pineapple, reserving 1 tablespoon juice. Set pineapple aside.
In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, whisk eggs, yogurt, oil and reserved pineapple juice. Add to flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Fold in reserved pineapple.
Fill greased mini-muffin cups two-thirds full. Sprinkle tops with brown sugar; top with halved cherries.
Bake 9-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Serve warm.

Editor's Note: If using regular-size muffin cups, reduce maraschino cherries to 5 and bake for 12-16 minutes.
