I am doing the very same thing. I will update this post if I found how to do it.

Try this, it work for me (for UIView):

- (IBAction)handlePinchGesture:(UIGestureRecognizer *)sender {
    static CGRect initialBounds;

    UIView *_view = sender.view;

    if (sender.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateBegan)
    {
        initialBounds = _view.bounds;
    }
    CGFloat factor = [(UIPinchGestureRecognizer *)sender scale];

    CGAffineTransform zt = CGAffineTransformScale(CGAffineTransformIdentity, factor, factor);
    _view.bounds = CGRectApplyAffineTransform(initialBounds, zt);
    return;
}
