CAKEY CHOCOLATE PEAR MUFFINS



Cakey Chocolate Pear Muffins image

These muffins are very, very yummy! They are juicy from the pears and so chocolatey good! Mmmm! This recipe originally was meant to make a cake, but I liked it better as a muffin. Naturally this means that the dough is stiffer and the muffins come out more cake like. I hope you enjoy!

2 pears, diced (use ripe ones)
50 g chocolate chips (I used a mix of milk chocolate and white)

  • Fill into prepared muffin tins and bake in the preheated oven at 190°C/375°F for about 20-30 minutes.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe pears. You can also use canned pears, but be sure to drain them well.
