Receta Pear-Pecan Bread
Pears are among my favorite fruits. Not only am I drawn to their taste, but something even about their appearance, strikes a chord with me. Sometimes it's hard for me even to take my eyes from a beautiful perfect pear. As silly as it might seem, my eye finds the line of the pear- it's simple shape so appealing that I find it a fruit that's almost borderline sensual!
This easy quick-bread recipe is one way to showcase the boastful flavor of the pear. As with all quick breads, I never make just a single loaf. I make at least two so that I have one to share with a neighbor- or to freeze for pulling out to serve in another season when a guest knocks at the door.
