2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 Bosc pear, peeled and grated
1 cup grated smoked gouda, divided

HEAT a large frying pan over medium. Add 1 tbsp oil, then onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until caramel coloured, 12 to 15 min. Let cool, then coarsely chop.
PREHEAT oven to 375F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Stir flour with baking powder, pear, ¾ cup cheese and salt in a medium bowl.
WHISK eggs with buttermilk, remaining ½ cup oil and onions in a large bowl. Stir in flour mixture just until combined. Divide batter among muffin cups. Sprinkle with remaining ¼ cup cheese.
