Spiced D'Anjou Pear Bread

Recipesfull introduces to you: Quick Bread Recipes. (Spiced D'Anjou Pear Bread). More like cake than bread, this 'plummy' creation is moist and delicious. The pears and spices combine so tastily that I only bake this when there are other people around so I won't eat both loaves all by myself.
