PERFECT PEAR MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
• Sift flour, 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, baking soda, nutmeg, and salt together in a large bowl. Add pears; stir to coat evenly.
• Combine buttermilk, egg yolks, oil, and vanilla extract in a bowl; mix well. Stir into the pear mixture until batter is just moistened.
• Beat egg whites in a separate bowl with an electric mixer until stiff but not dry. Fold egg whites into the batter until just barely incorporated. Fill muffin cups 2/3-full with batter.
• Combine 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon together in a bowl; sprinkle over the batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until light golden brown and tops spring back when lightly pressed, 25 to 30 minutes.

VANILLA PEAR MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease or line 12 muffin cups with paper liners.

Stir yogurt mixture into flour mixture until batter is just mixed; fold in pear and pecans. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups.
• Place muffin tin in the preheated oven; reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake until tops of muffins are browned and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
