I’m so excited to introduce you to Kami from No Diets Allowed…

Kami and I met at the IKEA Blogger Event and I just thought she was awesome…  SO, I’m  happy to tell y’all that she’s now a member of our Creative Team and a Monthly Contributor. Woo-hoo!

Kami’s made some delightful Pear Apple Granola Muffins to share with us and I won’t keep you waiting any longer…

I LOVE muffins!

One of my most favorite breakfasts is a warm, right-out-of-the-oven, moist, and fluffy muffin.

I didn’t think I would be able to love another muffin as much as my Whole Wheat Banana Zucchini Muffins, BUT I think I might love these just as much!

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 20 minutes

Total Time 40 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 and 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (I use Bob's Red Mill whole wheat pastry flour
• 1/2 cup whole quick oats
• 1/2 cup all-natural granola, I use Nature's Path Organic FlaxPlus granola
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 cup pureed Bartlett pear
• 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1/4 cup milk of your choice, I used coconut milk
• 1 tsp vanilla

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
2. In a large bowl, combine flour, oats, granola, baking powder, baking soda, salt; mix to combine.
3. In a medium sized bowl combine pear, applesauce, honey, oil, milk, vanilla; stir to combine.
4. Pour wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well.
5. In a lightly greased muffin pan, pour about 1/3 cup batter into each muffin cup. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
6. The tops will be slightly golden brown.

Instead of butter, margarine, jelly, or other highly processed/high sugar options, top your muffin with 1 Tbs of natural peanut butter or almond butter!

You’ll love how the flavors compliment each other!

Serve warm and enjoy!
