Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 9×5 inch loaf pan with nonstick spray liberally.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once it’s melted, stir in the brown sugar. Add the pears and toss once or twice to coat. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, just until the pears slightly soften. Place the pears in the bottom of the loaf pan, spooning all of the butter and sugar mixture overtop. Let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes or so until it cools a bit.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, powder, ginger, cardamom, salt and nutmeg. In a larger bowl, whisk together the melted butter, oil and sugar until smooth. Whisk in each egg one at a time until combined. Whisk in the vanilla extra. All the dry ingredients to the wet and stir with a large spoon until just combined. Fold in the grated pear. Spoon the batter overtop of the pears in the loaf pan. Place the loaf pan on a baking sheet. Bake for 65 to 75 minutes, or until the bread is set. Let cool for 15 to 20 minutes, then gently invert onto a cutting board or piece of parchment. Let cool completely before slicing.
