This has been a huge hit at our house! My 21 month old refused to eat pears, until I made this bread. So good!

Update: Still excellent, but I made another batch with canned pears I needed to use up and not nearly as good as fresh. FYI..so use either but fresh worked better for me. Original: Excellent...altho I couldn't really taste the pears. Could have been my pears. But the flavor and especially the texture of this bread was excellent. I made six mini loaves because I was in a hurry. I also cut way back on the cinnamon but that's because I have a bottle of Saigon cinnamon that I think has an especially strong flavor.

Loved this recipe!! It's easy and tasty! I make a 3-4 loaves at a time and freeze some so I can have it often. I left out the walnuts and went light on the sugar (using only 1 cup.) I highly recommend this recipe for people with pear trees in their yards at the end of season.

The cake baked up nicely and had a great flavor. Next time, I will grate the pears, as I didn't like they way they looked in the bread.

This is the second year of making this bread. My family and nieghbors love it. My neighbors tree always has an abundance of pears so I'm always looking for a new recipe. I did substitute 1/2 cup of the sugar for brown sugar, and omitted the nuts. I usually leaves the pears chunky to really get the flavor. This year I'm going to make extra to freeze, so I may cut the pears smaller, so the bread doesn't get mushy when it defrosts. Thanks for a great recipe.

Love. I feel like a superstar when I serve it. I kept the pear pieces more chunky, for a rustic texture. Don't skip the walnuts. They balance the sweetness of the bread perfectly.

OMGoodness! This was delicious. The perfect way to use up some already delicious pears that we couldn't eat fast enough. Made 3 loaves and one was gone before it was even cool. YUMMY!
