Instructions

To Make the Streusel

  • Place all the streusel ingredients in a small bowl and stir together with a fork. Set aside.

To Make the Muffins

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F, and prepare a muffin tin with paper liners or non-stick spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flours, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and baking soda.
  • In a smaller mixing bowl, combine the milk, yogurt, pear puree, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla.
  • Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients, and stir just until barely combined. (Mixture should be very lumpy.)
  • Fold in the diced pear and pomegranate arils, and place ⅓ cup of batter in each well of the prepared muffin pan.
  • Top each muffin with a pinch of streusel.
  • Bake for 5 minutes at 425 degrees F, then turn the oven temperature down to 350 degrees F and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
