Pear Bread

I love this fall treat. You can also make this with a firm apple. Due to the fruit it stays extremely moist when frozen. Make sure you let is cool completely before freezing. Then just thaw and slice!

Ingredients
2 c Flour
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/4 tsp Cinnamon
1/4 tsp Nutmeg
1/4 c Oil
1 c Sugar
2 Eggs
1/4 c Applesauce
1/4 c Sour Cream
1 tsp Vanilla
1 c Fresh Pears, chopped
1 c Nuts, chopped (optional)

Process

Combine flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg in a small bowl. In large mixer bowl, beat oil and sugar until well blended. Beat eggs, one at a time, then add applesauce, sour cream and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients and stir until moist. Stir in pears and nuts. Spoon into well-greased loaf pan. Bakes at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pan 10-15 minutes. Cool the rest of the way on the rack. When cooled completely wrap tightly and freeze.
