Ingredients
2 medium pears, peeled, cored and cubed (about 1/2 inch)
1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice
2 teaspoons sugar
1 cup featherlight flour
1/2 cup brown rice flour
1/2 cup almond flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
4 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup light sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375º.
- Peel, core and cube pears and place in a microwave safe bowl. Add lemon juice and the 2 teaspoons sugar. Microwave on high for 4 minutes, until pears are very soft. Smash the pears with a potato masher, but leave small chunks. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, add flours, sugar, xanthan gum, baking powder and salt. Mix until combined.
- In another bowl, beat eggs with a fork and add melted butter, milk, sour cream, vanilla and almond extract. Add wet ingredients and pears to dry ingredients. Stir until combined.
- Fill greased, or paper-lined muffin cups about 3/4 full. Bake at 375º for 16 – 17 minutes.

Where do you get your Featherlite flour? I can only find it in the dinky little cans. Have you found it in bulk?
