instructions
    1

    Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit) and prepare a muffin tin by greasing it or lining it with muffin liners.

    2

    In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are thoroughly combined.

    3

    In another bowl, whisk together olive oil, milk, and eggs until smooth.

    4

    Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just mixed. Do not overmix.

    5

    Fold in the diced pineapple and cheese, ensuring even distribution throughout the batter.

    6

    Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cavity about 2/3 full.

    7

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

    8

    Once baked, remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
