Print Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 medium ripe pears (peeled and diced (about 1 1/2 cups))

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and all the spices. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined – be careful not to overmix!
  6. Gently fold in the diced pears.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  9. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
