I like to whip up a few batches of these delicious muffins before Thanksgiving. They make a great breakfast treat and are wonderful served with coffee to early guests.

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp. allspice
• 1/2 tsp. salt

• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1 egg
• 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 16-oz. can pear slices, drained and finely chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line the cups of a mini-muffin tin with paper liners. In a medium-sized bowl, sift the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, allspice and salt.

2. In a large bowl, blend the buttermilk, oil, egg and brown sugar. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until combined. Fold in the pears. Fill the cups 2/3 of the way up. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden. Makes 24 muffins.
