Ingredients

nonstick cooking spray
2 large eggs, slightly beaten
1 tablespoon cinnamon-flavored applesauce
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups peeled and diced pears
1 cup white sugar
½ teaspoon ground ginger

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
Combine eggs and applesauce in a bowl. Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a second bowl.
Combine pears, sugar, and ginger in a third, large bowl. Add egg mixture; stir until well blended. Add flour mixture, 1 cup at a time, until just moistened. Fill the prepared muffin cups 2/3 full with batter.
Bake in the preheated oven until light golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 15 minutes.
