Directions
Vanilla-Pear Muffins, I got this recipe from the Williams-Sonoma Bride & Groom cookbook The book suggests using firm, ripe pears with a buttery texture and sweet perfume, such as French Butter, Comice, Warren, or Bartletts , but used Anjou and found these muffins to be delicious Also the recipe calls for freshly grated nutmeg, but used jarred ground nutmeg and didn’t notice the difference I hope you enjoy as much as I did , The taste is great but maybe my pears too ripe that cause my batter too runny and the texture become more like puddings Not happy with the result :(, I omitted the walnuts for the topping used only 1/4 cup of sugar in the muffins I omitted the oil and used applesauce instead They have a great taste It was my first time doing pear muffins Next time I’ll chop the pears a bit smaller Thanks KimmieCat 🙂 Made for PAC Fall 2011
