Pear Muffins - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (14 ounce) can unsweetened pears with juice
1 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup almond powder
1/2 cup oats
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, grated
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 eggs, lightly beaten
Garnish
1/4 cup sliced almonds
2 tablespoons honey

Preparation

Put the rack in the middle of the oven. Preheat at 350\u00b0F Grease 12 muffin tins or use paper cup.
Drain pears, reserve the juice and cut the pears in dice. You should have 3/4 cup of juice, if not add water to have 3/4 cup liquid.
In a large bowl, mix dry ingredients. Set aside.
In another bowl, mix honey and butter with a whisk. Incorporate the eggs, pear juice and pears. Pour on the dry ingredients and stir delicately with a fork just enough to wet the flour.
Distribute the dough in the muffin tins. Sprinkle with almonds and put a dash of honey on top.
Cook in oven for about 30 minutes or until a tooth-pick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Unmold and let cool on a rack.
