These delicious Pear Oatmeal Muffins are packed with fresh juicy pears and flavored with warming cardamom and vanilla. They are made with simple wholesome ingredients like milk, eggs, and rich olive oil. Made with brown sugar, these muffins are the perfect sweetness. I also use a 50:50 mix of old-fashioned oats and whole-wheat flour to add a healthy kick of fiber.
This recipe is as simple as any other muffin recipe. There is only one difference that needs to be observed: The soak. Combine the oats and milk in a large bowl and allow to sit for 15 minutes. Do not skip this wait time. Grease a muffin pan, combine the dry ingredients, dice the pears, and just let the oats do their thing. Next, stir the olive oil, egg, sugar, and vanilla extract into the soaked oat mixture. Stir in the dry ingredients, and then gently fold the pears into the batter. Spoon the batter into the muffin pan and top with the butter and sugar mixture. Bake until golden brown, and enjoy these muffins warm from the oven.
To make the Pear Oatmeal Muffins, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large bowl, combine 1 cup old-fashioned oats and 1 cup milk. Stir and let sit for 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 400 °F and lightly grease a muffin pan.
In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup white whole-wheat flour, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon ground cardamom.
Stir ½ cup brown sugar, 1 egg, ¼ cup olive oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract into the soaked oat mixture.
Stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Gently fold in 1 ½ cups diced pears.
Stir together 2 tablespoons brown sugar and 2 tablespoons melted butter.
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan. Top the muffin batter evenly with the brown sugar topping.
Bake for 15 to 17 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the pan.
Transfer the muffins to a cooling wire rack to cool slightly.
Serve warm, and enjoy!
