Bakery Style Ginger Pear Muffins – Homemade muffins that taste just like they are from a bakery! Fresh ginger and pear combined to make a healthy breakfast! They are the perfect way to start the day!

Bakery Style Ginger Pear Muffins

If you love pears and ginger, then this is the recipe for you! These ginger pear muffins are so tasty and easy to make! I had them for breakfast last week and wished I had made a double batch! They disappeared so quickly! The fresh ginger complements the pears so well along with just a hint of nutmeg!

I forgot how much I enjoy pears, I always would eat the canned pears when I was younger but I’m not sure I had ever had a fresh pear before weirdly enough.  They have such a nice texture and I can’t wait to try experimenting with them a bit more, I would love to make a tart or a quick bread! I ended up making a variation of this recipe a week later with cardamom in them instead of ginger and I am not sure which I liked better! Next up on the pear recipe roster is to make a chai oatmeal with spiced pears, I think that would be such an awesome combination of flavors!

Notes on bakery style ginger pear muffin recipe

  • Don’t forget to drop the ovens temperature down after the muffins are in the oven, this helps them become nice and domed on top, like a bakery muffin!
  • Try using coconut oil! It’s a healthier alternative to butter and it’s available just about everywhere and it works just as well!
