Ingredients
Streusel Topping
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 5 tablespoons salted butter melted
Muffins
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 5 tablespoons salted butter melted
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh pear (about ½ of a large pear-peeled, cored, and cut into small pieces)
- 1 cup coarsely chopped fresh cranberries
- 1/2 cup chopped toasted pecans
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375º F. Line muffin pans with 18 paper liners (or 9 jumbo liners).
- Combine all streusel ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and vanilla.
- Add the buttermilk mixture and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Stir just until most of the flour has been incorporated.
- Fold in the chopped pear, cranberries, and pecans. The batter will be thick.
- Divide between 18 liners - approximately ⅔ full.
- Evenly distribute the streusel topping on the batter in each cup, pressing down gently.
- Bake 20-25 minutes, just until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle of a muffin. Cool in pans on cooling racks for 10 minutes, then remove muffins from pans and allow them to cool completely.
