A nice change from regular banana bread-it's super moist and the pears really boost the flavor. I developed this by combining the best elements of banana and fruit bread recipes. As one of the reviewers discovered, this recipe doesn't work with hard pears-they have to be soft so they can be mashed in with the bananas to form a puree. Also, this can be cooked more quickly in a muffin tin (about 20 minutes).
Ingredients:
2 bananas
2 pears, peeled, chopped
2 cups flour
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup vanilla yogurt
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Mash bananas and pears in a bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, mix the rest of the ingredients until creamed together.
4. Stir in the fruit mixture.
5. Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan.
6. Bake for an hour and half.
7. Let cool for at least 10 minutes so it doesn't fall apart (it solidifies more with time).
