Harvest Spice Muffins (Apple-Pear Spice Muffins)
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup low-fat milk
- 1/2 cup olive oil or 1/2 cup canola oil
- 2 cups diced unpeeled pears, and or 2 cups apples
- 3 cups white whole wheat flour
- 1 cup sucanat
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Whisk together eggs, milk, and oil until completely blended.
- Stir in diced fruit.
- Combine remaining ingredients in separate bowl.
- Add dry to wet ingredients and stir just until blended.
- Let batter sit for 15-20 minutes: this is optional, but I think it makes the muffins rise higher. (You could also let the batter sit after you divide it into the muffin cups, instead of before.).
- Divide batter between 20 greased muffin cups and bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown on top.
- Serve warm with a drizzle of honey!
