“My mom and I put up our own pears, so I always have plenty on hand when I want to make this wonderful bread,” relates Rachael Barefoot of Linden, Michigan. “It’s so moist and delicious that you’ll want to have another slice…or two!”

Alittle extra clove and this is great. It's not overly sweet. I used canned pears. My 18 month old likes it too.

I rated this a 5 not because I thought it was a five, but I made it Saturday and by Monday evening my family had devoured it! Will make again.

I made the recipe to a tee and both my husband and I thought it was very plain. It was moist which is good but it wasn't near as good as other pear breads I have had in the past. It seemed to be lacking in taste. We had other people over when we had it and they really liked it but it isn't something I will make again.

My husband and I both really liked this. I used pears canned with splenda and then in the bread I used 1/2 splenda and 1/2 sugar. I will make this recipe again but replace half of the gloves with nutmeg.

I made this bread with fresh ripe pears.Cannot tell you how much I uses, I just used what I had and estimated about how much was 3 cans worth. I also used 5 pans and they baked up nicely. Next time I will add some kind of nuts.

My husband says it's his new favorite. We had a lot of fresh pears so I used those instead of canned pears as well as an extra pear instead of the applesauce and its delicious! Moist and yummy!
