📝 Recipe Instructions:
-
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until well combined.
-
Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
-
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the liquid mixture into the well. Gently stir until the dry ingredients are just moistened, being careful not to overmix.
-
Fold in Pears and Pecans: Gently fold in the diced pears and chopped pecans until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Fill Muffin Cups: Line a muffin tin with paper liners and fill each cup two-thirds full with the batter, ensuring an even distribution.

Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
