Amazing! Substituted natural applesauce for the oil and only used 1/2 c brown sugar, 1/2 c sugar and it was still delightfully sweet. Diced the pears pretty small. Definitely keeping this one!

Sooo moist and even after several days. Used 1/2 oil 1/2 applesauce and 1 cup white and 1 cup brown sugar. Left out the nuts and put only 1 tsp vanilla and baked in a dark bundt pan for 50 minutes. Seriously delicious.. got rave reviews with family and at work

I cut this recipe back to ten servings. I made an omelette with egg whites which means I had an egg yolk to use in another recipe. Not really a halved egg but it worked with what I needed without any waste. I also did not have any pecans on hand. To make up the half cup, I added in one half cup of ground oats. I just threw the oats in the mini food processor and pulsed until it was a fine consistancy, almost like whole wheat flour. Those were the only changes I made. I actually got 12 bigger-sized muffins out of this recipe. I baked them at 350 for 20 minutes. They turned out nicely--moist and the right amount of pear. I'd like to make these again but I think I'd increase the spices next time.

Delicious! Substituted 1 cup applesauce for the oil and added a bit of allspice. Very tasty. :)

The pear and nutmeg are great together. Flavor is even better the next day. Love the crunchy top.

Delicious! It was a great way to use all the pears off my pear tree.

I used my frozen pears and split the sugars, 1/2 brown and 1/2 white. Used canola oil rather than veg oil. Made 5 mini loaves. Turned out great. Will use this recipe again for sure. I'm freezing two of the the loaves, so I will let you know.
