Pear and Granola Muffin


So I am trying to do this P90X diet. Here is one of the recipe's from there. It's really easy and good.
  • 3/4 cup canned pear nectar (I used canned pears, and just use pear juice from the can)
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 Tb vegetable oil
  • 1 Tb lemon juice
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup of brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup of low-fat granola
  • 1 Tb baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups chopped, pears
Preheat Oven to 350 degrees
Whisk together first 5 ingredients in large bowl
Stir both flours and sugar in medium bowl until no sugar lumps remain
Mix in granola, baking powder, nutmeg, salt, and pears. Mix in flour mixture into egg mixture until blended (batter will be thick). Divide among muffin cups.
***The recipe states it makes 10, but mine made about 16-18***
Bake until golden brown and knife can be inserted into center and comes out clean.
***They said 20 minutes, mine was more like 30 minutes***

Total Calories: 227 per muffin
