Pear and Ginger Muffins

[kayloulee]

I copied this recipe out of Nigella Express at the beginning of the year, when I had it out from the library, and first made it right at the start of my university semester (March), when I was having a particularly traumatic time of it. I was so stressed out from moving house and a really epic gastritis episode that there was very little I could eat happily and relatively quickly. These muffins saved my breakfasts for about two weeks straight.

They keep very well in the fridge, not so well outside it, I'd say a day at most outside the fridge in hot humid weather, probably stretched to two-ish in cooler weather. I've never tried freezing them but it would probably work all right.
