Pear and Almond Muffins

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Pear and Almond Muffins.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).

2. Step 2

   While the oven warms up, take a moment to prepare your muffin tin.

   This is where the magic begins! Gently fold in the diced pears and crunchy pecan pieces, ensuring they’re well coated with the flour mixture.

   In a separate bowl, whisk together white sugar, milk, brown sugar, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until everything is smooth and inviting.

6. Step 6

   Now, pour those delightful wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients.

   Pop the tin into your preheated oven and bake for around 20 minutes.
