How to Make Bartlett Pear Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease generously with nonstick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 4 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk, 1 large egg, ¼ cup melted unsalted butter, and 1 teaspoon lemon zest.
  4. Gently fold in 2 cups peeled and diced Bartlett pears and ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans into the flour mixture.
  5. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
  6. Fill each muffin cup about ⅔ full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
