Notes
- If desired, you can omit whole wheat flour and sub with entirely all-purpose flour.
- Flax meal can be substituted with almond meal. This provides extra nutrition and a moist crumb.
- Feel free to use peeled or unpeeled diced pears; it is up to you.
- Feel free to incorporate any add-ins you'd like: toasted chopped pecans or chocolate chips are a great choice.
