For an extra burst of flavor, consider using Bosc pears, known for their firm texture and rich taste. Chopped pecans or almonds can be substituted for walnuts. These muffins are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For a richer flavor, substitute melted butter for the cooking oil.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger, and salt. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. (5 minutes)
03
StepIn a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, and beaten egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the well in the dry ingredients. Stir until just moistened; be careful not to overmix. Gently fold in the chopped pear and walnuts. (5 minutes)
04
StepFill the prepared muffin cups evenly with the batter. (3 minutes)
05
StepIn a small bowl, combine the oat bran and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of ground ginger. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the tops of the filled muffin cups. (2 minutes)
06
StepBake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean and the tops are golden brown, approximately 18 to 20 minutes. (20 minutes)
07
StepAllow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm for the best experience. (5 minutes)
