Pear Bran Muffins

This recipe is a Southbeach Diet recipe. The pear adds a nice moistness. You could also substitute apples.Substitutions: I always use whole wheat flour, not whole wheat pastry flour as I never have that on hand. You could also subtract two tablespoons of whole wheat flour and add two tablespoons of cornstarch as a substitution.Buttermilk: I pour 1 TBSP of vinegar in the bottom of my measuring cup and then add the milk. This sours the milk if you don't have buttermilk on hand. The vinegar activates the baking soda.Sugar: I've also used regular sugar in this recipe which would increase the calorie count but is good for people who don't like artificial sweetners.

How Do I Make Pear Bran Muffins?

Here is how you make Pear Bran Muffins:

Directions:Heat oven to 350? F. Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly coat with cooking spray (silicone muffin tins work great, but your muffin won't brown quite as much).Combine flour, bran, sugar substitute, cinnamon, baking soada, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Combine buttermilk, eggs, oil, pear, and vanilla in another mixing bowl. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix just to combine; do not overmix. Divide batter evenly into muffin cups. Bake for 20 minutes. Cool and serve. I've also added a bit of nutmeg (1/4 tsp), allspice (1/2 tsp), cloves (1/4 tsp). Add or subtract whatever spices you like. I often increase the cinnamon to 2 tsp but I quite like cinnamon. :-) It's also really good to add an additional 1 tsp of rum extract.
