Pear and Ginger Muffins

This is another recipe from Nigella Lawson's Nigella Express. These are super-yummy and it is very hard to eat just one.

  • 1 3/4 cups flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 2/3 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 TBS honey
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups peeled and diced pears (about 1/4 inch dice)
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper muffin cups.
  2. In a large bowl mix flour, sugars, baking powder and ground ginger.
  3. In another bowl whisk together sour cream, oil, honey and eggs. Fold into dry ingredients.
  4. Mix in pear dice and divide batter evenly among the muffin cups.
  5. Bake about 20 - 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to a cooling rack.
