Blue Cheese Pear Muffins

I had a pear and half a container of Blue Cheese left over from making my R2R recipes so Blue Cheese Pear Muffins were born! The salty flavor from the Blue Cheese went so well with the sweet and fresh flavors from the Pear. It was almost like a Pear and Blue Cheese Crostini but in muffin form! hehe


Ingredients: (12 muffins)

2 c all-purpose flour
1/4 c packed brown sugar
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
4 oz crumbled Blue Cheese

2/3 c milk
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 pear, cored and finely chopped

Prep:


1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease 12 (2-1/2-inch) muffin cups; set aside.

2. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and cheese in large bowl. Combine milk, egg and oil in small bowl. Stir into flour mixture with pear and nuts just until moistened. Spoon evenly into prepared muffin cups.

3. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on wire rack 10 minutes. Serve warm or cool completely.
