Pecan Pear Bread
SUBMITTED BY:
Margaret Slocum
"'We have almost 50 fruit trees on our country property, including five pear trees,' notes Margaret Slocum of Ridgefield, Washington. 'I like to can most of the crop, but I make sure to save some for this moist, mildly spiced bread.'"

I had a few pears that sat around a little too long on the cupboard, (three to be exact, which was perfect for this recipe!)so i thought I'd give this recipe a try. It was delicious! My whole family loved it. I didn't have cardamom, so just doubled the cinnamon, and followed the rest of the recipe exactly. We ate the whole loaf in one sitting!!! Definately a keeper!

I made this as a cake in an 8 X 3 cake pan, and we loved it. A little like apple cake in texture but a more delicate taste. The cardamom is the perfect touch--it really makes the cake. I used 2 Bosc pears, and the only change I made was to use plain yogurt instead of sour cream. I will definitely include this excellent recipe in my holiday bread baking!
