Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
• ½ cup shredded coconut or chopped nuts, optional

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract, then gently mix in the drained crushed pineapple. Add the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Fold in coconut or nuts if using. Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are soft. Let the cookies cool before serving.

Tips

Drain the pineapple well so the cookies don’t become too wet. Do not overmix the dough after adding the flour. For extra tropical flavor, add coconut flakes or a pinch of cinnamon.

These Soft and Chewy Pineapple Cookies are simple, fruity, and delicious. They’re perfect when you want an easy homemade cookie with a fresh tropical twist.
