Pear and Honey Muffins

November 27, 2015 by caroline 2 Comments

Pear and Honey Muffins are a perfect addition to any lunch box. My kids love pears and the beauty of this Pear and Honey Muffins recipe is that it uses a tin of pears, which means you can bake these up all year round! The addition of the runny honey just makes these muffins truly delicious!

If you buy a tin of pears in natural juices (rather than syrup) this will help keep the sugar content down.
