Spiced Pear Bread Food

SPICED PEAR BREAKFAST BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350ºF.
• Grease an 8x4-inch or 9.5x3.5-inch loaf pan (I use this one), and flour the bottom.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, baking soda, salt, and cloves.
• In a large mixing bowl, blend the oil, liquid sweetener, egg, and vanilla until just combined. Stir in the pear followed by the flour mixture. Stir just until combined; do not over mix (a few little lumps are okay).
• Spoon the batter into your prepared loaf pan and even out.
• Bake for 45 to 55 minutes (I'm at 4500 feet / dry climate and 50 minutes is spot on), or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
• Let the loaf cool in the pan for 15 minutes or until cool enough to pick up. Gently remove the loaf from the pan and cool it completely on a wire rack before slicing. Tightly wrap and store any leftovers at room temperature for up to 2 days, but chill in the refrigerator or freezer if you want it to keep longer.

SPICED PEAR BREAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, pears, applesauce and oil. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened., Pour into four 5-3/4x3x2-in. loaf pans coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

SPICED ANJOU PEAR BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F (I baked at 325F convection).
• Generously grease two large (9X5-inch) loaf pans--the long pieces of pear make the loaves more susceptible to sticking in the pans and falling apart, so make sure you grease generously. (I lined the bottom and sides with a long piece of greased waxed paper, leaving enough extra at the sides to lift the loaf out of the pan.).
• In a large bowl, combine brown sugar, vegetable oil, molasses, and eggs; mix in salt, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and allspice.
• Stir the pear slices in, coating them evenly; stir in the flour.
• Pour batter into prepared loaf pans.
• Bake for 50-65 minutes (I baked mine right around 60 minutes).
• Allow loaves to cool in pan about ten minutes before removing them and placing them on a wire rack to cool.
• Note: I halved the recipe, making one loaf, and used 1 whole egg and 1 egg white.

• In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
• Stir dry ingredients into pear mixture.
• Pour into prepared loaf pan.
• Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow bread to cool for about 10 minutes before removing from pan and cooling on a wire rack.

SPICED D'ANJOU PEAR BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and generously grease two large loaf pans. (The long pieces of pear make the loaves more susceptible to sticking in the pans and falling apart, so make sure you grease the pans generously.)
• In a large bowl, combine brown sugar, vegetable oil, molasses, and eggs. Mix in salt, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and allspice. Stir the pear slices in, coating them evenly. Stir in the flour. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pans
• Bake for 50 to 65 minutes. Allow loaves to cool in pan about ten minutes before removing them and placing them on a wire rack to cool completely.

SPICED PEAR BREAD

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the pears, sugar, applesauce, oil and eggs.
• In a small bowl, combine the flour, spices, salt, baking soda and baking powder with a whisk.
• Gradually add the flour mixture to the pear mixture and mix well but don't overmix.
• Pour into four mini loaf pans which have been sprayed with non-stick spray. (The pans should be around 5 3/4"x3"x2" in size).
• Bake at 350F for 50-55 minutes or until the bread passes a toothpick test. Mine baked much quicker and were done in 35 minutes so be sure to check your bread after the 35 minute mark. I think it depends on thickness and darkness of your mini loaf pans and if they are part of a one pan set or individual pans.
• Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan and letting cool on a wire rack.
