How to Make Spiced Anjou Pear Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Generously grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans. (The long pear slices can make the bread stick, so take extra care with this step.)
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1/4 cup molasses, and 2 large eggs until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in 4 cups peeled and thinly sliced Anjou pears (about 3 medium pears).
- Gradually add 3 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans.
- Bake for 50-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
