    Ingredients

    • 1/2 cup maple syrup
    • 1/2 cup honey
    • 1 cup shredded pears*
    • 1 cup shredded apple *
    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
    • 1/4 cup canola oil
    • 1/4 cup apple butter
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1 cup unsweetened soymilk
    • 1 cup unbleached, organic, all-purpose flour
    • 1 cup whole-wheat pastry flour
    • 2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, divided

    Directions

    1. * Shred fruit using a box grater or a food processor fitted with the shredding blade.
    2. Pre-heat the oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or spray with nonstick cooking spray. In a medium saucepan, combine maple syrup, honey, shredded fruit, cinnamon, nutmeg, canola oil, apple butter, vanilla and soymilk. Heat on low for 2 to 3 minutes, mixing well. Set the mixture aside to cool for 5 minutes.
    3. In a large bowl, sift together the dry ingredients (flours, baking soda and salt). Combine the fruit mixture with the dry ingredients to form a batter. Stir in half of the walnuts. Scoop batter into the muffin tins. Sprinkle with remaining walnuts and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick pushed in the center comes out clean.
