  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and place the rack in the center. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with vegetable spray and place muffin liners.
  • In a deep bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • In another deep bowl, mix the sugar, butter, milk, cream, eggs, and yolk. Whisk well with a balloon whisk.
  • Combine the liquid ingredients with the dry ones and mix with a wooden spoon.
  • Add the pear and ginger to the mixture and combine. (The batter should be lumpy; do not overmix).
  • With a spoon, pour the batter into the muffin tin. Bake the muffins until they are lightly golden (30-35 minutes). Remove from the oven.
  • While the muffins are baking, make the glaze by mixing the powdered sugar and ground ginger in a deep bowl. Add 6 tablespoons of water and mix well until you obtain a glaze.
  • Once the muffins have cooled, cover them with the glaze and wait at least 30 minutes before serving so that the glaze hardens.
