2 ½ cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 ¼ cups sugar
¼ cup maple syrup
½ cup home-made applesauce (this is the secret part)
12 grapeseed oil (canola oil is fine too)

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit, and spray a jumbo muffin pan with non-stick cooking oil.

Whisk all wet ingredients together : the maple syrup, eggs, sugar, applesauce, yogurt, and sour milk.
3
Stir in the pears and pecan pieces.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients : flour, salt, and baking powder.
5
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients carefully, until just mixed.
6
Scoop into a dozen muffins (they will be huge in a regular pan but I got away with it).
7
Bake on centre rack, rotating every 15 minutes, for around 30-50 minutes, depending on what pan size you're using.
8
Wait 5-10 minutes before removing or they'll crumble!
