I'm not a huge fan of pears, but I actually really enjoyed these muffins. The gingerbread flavor really shines through.

I love that these muffins are made with whole wheat flour. It makes them a bit healthier than your average muffin.

Overall, I thought these muffins were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I found these muffins to be a bit too dry. I think I'll try adding some more moisture next time.

I wasn't sure how the gingerbread and pear flavors would go together, but I was pleasantly surprised. The muffins are moist and flavorful, and the streusel topping is the perfect finishing touch.

These gingerbread-pear muffins are everything I was hoping for and more! The flavors of the gingerbread and pear complement each other perfectly, and the muffins are moist and fluffy. I especially love the crunchy streusel topping.
